Nonlocal Games as Cross-Platform Quantum Benchmarks: Exceeding unconditional classical bounds on trapped-ion processors

Anton T. Than, Jim Furches, Debopriyo Biswas +15

Nonlocal games provide application-level benchmarks for quantum hardware whose classical performance bounds are information-theoretic, holding against all classical strategies rega…

Hybridlane: A Software Development Kit for Hybrid Continuous-Discrete Variable Quantum Computing

Jim Furches, Timothy J. Stavenger, Carlos Ortiz Marrero

Hybrid quantum computing systems that combine discrete-variable qubits with continuous-variable qumodes offer promising advantages for quantum simulation, error correction, and sen…

Hybrid continuous-discrete-variable quantum computing: a guide to utility

A. F. Kemper, Antonios Alvertis, Muhammad Asaduzzaman +24

Quantum computing has traditionally centered around the discrete variable paradigm. A new direction is the inclusion of continuous variable modes and the consideration of a hybrid…

Application-level Benchmarking of Quantum Computers using Nonlocal Game Strategies

Jim Furches, Sarah Chehade, Kathleen Hamilton +2

In a nonlocal game, two noncommunicating players cooperate to convince a referee that they possess a strategy that does not violate the rules of the game. Quantum strategies allow…

Adaptive Quantum Generative Training using an Unbounded Loss Function

Kyle Sherbert, Jim Furches, Karunya Shirali +2

We propose a generative quantum learning algorithm, Rényi-ADAPT, using the Adaptive Derivative-Assembled Problem Tailored ansatz (ADAPT) framework in which the loss function to be…
