The central selling point of qubit-based quantum processors is that they can supposedly solve certain types of tasks much faster than a classical computer. This comes however with the major ...

Figure 1: A two-dimensional representation of a ten-dimensional hypercube. A RIKEN researcher has shown that quantum Ising models lack local conserved quantities even ...

This is the second in a series of three papers that charts the history of the Lenz-Ising model (commonly called just the Ising model in the physics literature) in considerable detail, from its ...

This is the last in a series of three papers on the history of the Lenz-Ising model from 1920 to the early 1970s. In the first paper, I studied the invention of the model in the 1920s, while in the ...

Mathematicians have found a way to transform an unproductive quantum computing approach by reviving a class of previously discarded particles. Now, in a new study published in the journal Nature ...
