Deploying and validating a metropolitan QKD secure network: architecture and field performance
Claudia De Lazzari, Nicola Biagi, Damiano Giani +15
The advent of cryptographically relevant quantum computers poses an existential threat to classical public-key infrastructure. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) addresses this challen…
Harnessing a 256-qubit Neutral Atom Simulator for Graph Classification
Edoardo Giusto, Gabriele Iurlaro, Bartolomeo Montrucchio +5
Neutral atom platforms are analogue quantum simulators that offer the possibility to map graphs onto a 2D qubit register using programmable Rubidium atoms arrays, whose valence ele…
Harnessing DEN models for quantum computing tasks on neutral atom QPUs
Chiara Vercellino, Giacomo Vitali, Paolo Viviani +3
We present our work on effectively representing unit-disk graphs on the registers of neutral atom quantum machines. Specifically, we aimed to embed graphs corresponding to proteins…
Lagrange: Operating Italy's First Publicly-Accessible Quantum Computer for Research and Education
Paolo Viviani, Fabrizio Bertone, Giacomo Vitali +14
We describe the design, implementation, and nine-month operational experience of the software management stack for Lagrange, an IQM Spark five-qubit superconducting quantum compute…
Three ways to share a QPU: Scheduling strategies for hybrid Quantum-HPC applications
