Portfolio Optimization as a QUBO Problem
In this problem, we explain how to apply Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) method in finance. In particular, we explore portfolio optimization using QUBO formalism.
Quantum-Accelerated Monte-Carlo Methods
In this video, Asst. Prof. Patrick Rebentrost reviews classical Monte-Carlo methods and show that quantum computers provide speed-up over the classical sampler.
Overview of Quantum Computational Finance
In this video, Asst. Prof. Patrick Rebentrost summarizes some of the directions that have been explored in quantum computational finance.
What is quantum optics?
Quantum optics deals with the interaction of light and matter at the microscopic scale. In this video, Prof. Mølmer gives an overview of quantum optics and also how we try to control and steer these systems towards potential applications.
Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics
In this video, Prof. Klaus Mølmer talks about Copenhagen view of quantum mechanical wave function, pilot wave and the many-worlds interpretation.
What is Schrödinger's cat?
When discussing superposition of macroscopic objects, the phrase "Schrödinger's cat" is almost always mentioned. In this video made by high school students, we explain some of the misconceptions about it.
The Importance of Science Outreach Activities
In this video, Prof. Klaus Mølmer shares with us his views on why science outreach activities are important.
Overview of Noise Reduction Strategies in Quantum Computing
What are the general noise reduction strategies in quantum computing? In this video, we give a brief overview of the various techniques used.
Mathematics of the Nonlocal Game - On Bell's Paradox
Liked our video about the non-local game where two kids are challenged by the teacher going to the candy shop and stationery shop? Watch this video to learn more.
What is QIBO?
QIBO is an open-source middleware for quantum computing. In this video, we briefly explain the main features of QIBO.
What is quantum middleware?
Quantum middleware provides the linkage between quantum hardware and the algorithms.
Are there quantum jumps?
It seems that from the Schrödinger's equations of motion, the wavefunction follows a differential equation which predicts no jumps. So are there quantum jumps?
From thermal phase transition to quantum phase transition
In this video, we review thermal phase transition and explain how quantum phase transition comes about.
The Group Theory Argument - On Bell's Paradox
In this video, we explain the Bell's paradox from group theory.
Travelling Salesman Problem
What is the shortest possible route that visits each city exactly once and returns to the origin city?
Interferometer - wave mode and particle mode
Quantum objects are neither particles nor waves, they possess both particle aspects and wave aspects.
Hardy's Paradox in 4 mins
Through Hardy's paradox - a thought experiment - we see how quantum outcomes cannot be predicted using classical logic.
SI units & Quantum Mechanics
Since 2019, SI units have been defined using quantum mechanics. Let us find out how it is done.
Interferometer and Uncertainties
In this dual, we compare the uncertainty relations and the inequalities given by an interferometer.
Introduction to Quantum State Estimation - part 1
In this video, we discuss the difference between linear inversion and maximum likelihood in quantum state estimation.
