A very enjoyable collaboration @timohillmann.bsky.social, @lucasberent.bsky.social, Armanda Quintavalle, Robert Wille, and @jenseisert.bsky.social

parity-check codes. Our LSD algorithm works as a post-processor for standard belief propagation algorithms and, crucially, is designed from the bottom-up with parallism in mind. This makes it a suitable for implementation on specialised hardware (e.g., GPUs, FPGAs, ASICS) for real-time decoding.

𝘁𝗹;𝗱𝗿; Any quantum error correction (QEC) protocol is only ever as good as its decoder: a classical co-processor tasked with intrepting stabiliser measurements in real-time. In this work, we propose localised statistics decoding (LSD) as a very general decoding algorithm for quantum low-density ...

Thanks you!

The group's research include:

- Investigating new QEC protocols.
- Designing QEC decoding algorithms for specialised hardware.
- Logical gates for fault-tolerant logic.
- Design and implementation of QEC experiments,
- Developing open-source QEC software.

More details soon!

My group will tackle both the theoretical and practical challenges of building fault-tolerant quantum computers.

I'll be advertising postdoctoral research positions soon. Please get in touch if you're interested in joining or collaborating.

@physicssteve.bsky.social's Inside Quantum Podcast has two seasons and over 20 episodes in total. Highly recommended insidequantum.org

Yes. They are two separate programmes. You can apply for both.

Ah wow. This is amazing! Is it in a Github repo so we can contribute?

I'll see if the repo can be moved to the Quantum-journal GitHub organisation. Arxiv PDF upload would work. You could also upload the typst source alongside that, so the experience wouldn't be much different than with LaTeX
