No payment, no waiving of fees, it's like getting a sticker on your CV I guess 🤷‍♂️

I got an invitation for this, but seems like a ton of work 😅

Thanks again to my wonderful co-authors Martin Larocca, @dgarciamartin.bsky.social, @nahuelldiaz.bsky.social, Paolo Braccia, Enrico Fontana, @quantummanuel.bsky.social, Pablo Bermejo, @aroosaijaz.bsky.social @supanut-thanasilp.bsky.social, Eric Anschuetz and @qzoeholmes.bsky.social

As always, the works is not meant to be a strict statement (only a Sith deals in absolutes), but we want to engage our community in an open discussions regarding the (many) limitations of variational methods and how to solve these issues!

forgot @nahuelldiaz.bsky.social on the list above #Shame

Hey Mark! Great question, we jump from local unitaries to SLOCC, as those are based on underlying Lie groups.

To be honest I have always found LOCC extremely confusion (separable a little less so), but making the leap of faith straight to SLOCC was the saving grace for us.

Huge propos to my co-authors Andy Deneris, Paolo Braccia, Pablo Bermejo and @antonioannamele.bsky.social !

We only scratched the surface of a cross-examination of a state’s resourcefulness, but our work revealed that resource is truly in the eye of the (QRT) beholder!

I can't really elaborate more than what the title already says, we take free states of one theory, we see how resourceful they are in another one.

Its a simple idea which leads to cool results, and the paper is packed with Haar integrals and numerics!

So What Do We Know QC To Be Good For?
- Simulating quantum physics and chemistry
- Breaking current public-key encryption (RSA, DH, ECC)
- Eventually, modest (square-root) speedups from Grover
- We’ll have to get lucky for most other applications!
(The world has been systemically lied to about this)
