The world’s leading experimental quantum computing teams are racing to develop quantum processors that might have the capability to take the first steps into the ‘quantum frontier’.
It is hoped that these devices can perform some form of post-classical computation of a type that cannot be performed efficiently on a digital computer but can on a quantum computer – a direct, practical challenge to the extended Church-Turing Thesis.
Despite these advances, the construction of quantum processors that can achieve the full potential of quantum computing remains an extremely challenging task that fundamentally pushes the limits of physics, engineering, and computer science.
Knowing that classical computers are currently faster, have more stable memories, and can be highly parallelised: where exactly is the ‘quantum frontier’?
In this talk Professor Bremner will discuss how quantum advantage emerges from the subtle characteristics of problems where quantum interference can best be utilised, and why this makes building and developing applications for quantum computers such a difficult task.
