Unleashing Analog Quantum Computing

Susanne Yelin explains how modest control of analog quantum platforms can reveal observables and dynamics of strongly correlated fermions, including pairing, long-range interactions and cooling. The seminar then examines universal quantum computation under global control, optimal-control methods for engineering effective interactions and topological dynamics, and approximate error correction designed for analog systems. Together, these approaches treat large quantum devices as adaptable computational resources whose capabilities extend beyond simulating a single model.
