Computational quantum transport: a scattering approach perspective
Xavier Waintal, Michael Wimmer, Anton Akhmerov +5
This review is devoted to the different techniques that have been developed to compute the phase-coherent transport properties of quantum nanoelectronic systems connected to electr…
Feasibility of performing quantum chemistry calculations on quantum computers
Thibaud Louvet, Thomas Ayral, Xavier Waintal
Quantum chemistry is envisioned as an early and disruptive application for quantum computers. Yet, closer scrutiny of the proposed algorithms shows that there are considerable diff…
Tensorized orbitals for computational chemistry
Nicolas Jolly, Yuriel Núñez Fernández, Xavier Waintal
Choosing a basis set is the first step of a quantum chemistry calculation and it sets its maximum accuracy. This choice of orbitals is limited by strong technical constraints as on…
Opening the Black Box Inside Grover's Algorithm
E. M. Stoudenmire, Xavier Waintal
Grover's algorithm is a primary algorithm offered as evidence that quantum computers can provide an advantage over classical computers. It involves an "oracle" specified for a give…
