Practical quantum computing will require error rates well below those achievable with physical qubits. Quantum error correction1,2 offers a path to algorithmically relevant error rates by encoding logical qubits within many physical qubits, for which increasing the number of physical qubits enhances protection against…

'Steven T. Flammia' 'Benjamin J. Brown'] Performing large calculations with a quantum computer will likely require a fault-tolerant architecture based on quantum error-correcting codes. The challenge is to design practical quantum error-correcting codes that perform well against realistic noise using modest resources.…

Error correction is an essential part of the theory of quantum computation. However, new quantum computation students may find the theories of error correction and fault tolerance daunting, or they may be stuck with theoretical/outdated schemes (such as the one in the original proof of the threshold theorem by Aharonov…

One of the biggest obstacles to building a large scale quantum computer is the high qubit cost of protecting quantum information. For two-dimensional architectures, the surface code has long been the leading candidate quantum memory, but can require upwards of a thousand physical qubits per logical qubit to reach…

We explore a distance-3 homological CSS quantum code, namely the small stellated dodecahedron code, for dense storage of quantum information and we compare its performance with the distance-3 surface code. The data and ancilla qubits of the small stellated dodecahedron code can be located on the edges respectively…

Molecular adsorption in nanoporous materials has many large-scale industrial applications ranging from separation to storage. To design the best materials, computational simulations are key in guiding the experimentation and engineering processes. Because nanoporous materials exist in a plethora of forms, we need to…

Here, PySurf is introduced as an innovative code framework, which is specifically designed for rapid prototyping and development tasks for data-science applications in computational chemistry. To illustrate the potential of the framework, a code for nonadiabatic surface-hopping simulations based on the Landau-Zener…

Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) are a promising technology to help integrate solar cells into the built environment, as they are colorful, semi-transparent, and can collect diffuse light. While LSCs have traditionally been cuboidal, in recent years a variety of unconventional geometries have arisen, for example…

In this contribution, we will review the concepts and principles used to characterize and discuss the structure, stability, adsorption properties and catalytic reactivity of bimetallic surfaces in an atomic scale picture. Starting from early stages, we will emphasize recent experimental and theoretical findings that…
