Description
Noise in quantum computers is usually considered negatively as it destroys quantum information exponentially fast and therefore poses huge constraints on the duration or depth of quantum algorithm. However, noise is also a source of dissipation, which is a fundamental aspect in condensed matter physics: for instance, dissipation is often instrumental in driving physical systems to equilibrium or at least to a steady state.
It turns out that noise can possibly be used to one’s advantage by using advanced algorithms. In this internship, we will explore how to take advantage of qubit noise to build quantum algorithms for the study of systems of interacting fermions coupled to dissipative baths.
