Abstract:
We discuss recent progress in building,
and programming quantum computers and
quantum simulators. Our focus is on
quantum optical systems of atoms and ions
manipulated by laser light, providing
prime examples of quantum systems, which
can be controlled on the level of single
quanta. This includes trapped ions as a
universal quantum processor, and digital
and analog quantum simulation of strongly
correlated quantum matter with optically
trapped atoms.
The talk presents examples taken from
recent collaborative theory-experiment research,
where trapped-ion quantum simulators are
programmed in the `Innsbruck quantum
cloud'. Specific topics include
variational quantum simulation demonstrating classical-
quantum algorithms, running `randomized'
measurement protocols quantifying
entanglement, and (cross-) verification of
intermediate scale quantum devices.
