NMR simulation of topological phases
We will talk about recent progress in NMR technologies simulating topological phases. We will describe how states are prepared, how they are evolved in time and various tricks that we...

Toy Models of Holographic Duality between local Hamiltonians
Holographic quantum error correcting codes (HQECC) have been proposed as toy models for the AdS/CFT correspondence, and exhibit many of the features of the duality. HQECC give a mapping of...

Docker and Singularity
Docker provides "containerization" for software -- a way to package up a piece of software and all its dependencies, so that it can run the same way on different computers...

What is the landscape of natural language? Insights from a random language model
Many complex systems have a generative, or linguistic, aspect: life is written in the language of DNA; protein structure is written in a language of amino acids, and human endeavour...

Fusion rules from entanglement
Connections between 2D gapped quantum phases and the anyon fusion theory have been proven in various ways under different settings. In this work, we introduce a new framework connecting them...

Solving physics many-body problems with deep learning
Solving classical and quantum physics many-body systems are amongst the hardest problems in the natural sciences, but also of fundamental importance for applications such as material and drug design. In...

A multivariable approach to renormalisation: Meromorphic germs with linear poles and the geometry of cones
Analytic renormalisation "à la Speer" using a multivariable approach typically leads to meromorphic germs in several variables whose poles are linear. In particular, Feynman integrals, multizeta functions and their generalisations...

Spectral gaps without frustration
In quantum spin systems, the existence of a spectral gap above the ground state has strong implications for the low-energy physics. We survey recent results establishing spectral gaps in various...

SU(2) gauge theory on digital quantum computers
Results from the first digital quantum simulation of an SU(2) gauge theory are presented. This was done by analytically constructing gauge-invariant states and implementing a Trotterized time evolution operator for...
