100% agree. Especially since we have author IDs that are matched to the papers when they are claimed!

This year's Quantum Computing Theory in Practice Conference (QCTiP) is scheduled for 04/20/2026-04/25/2026 in Oxford, UK 🇬🇧: qctipconf.github.io Talk submission deadline is just round the corner: 01/11/2026. Looking forward to many exciting contributions and a great time in Hogwarts🪄, aehm Oxford🎓.

Dominik Hangleiter weighs in with an informative post about a much debated question: Has quantum advantage been achieved? This is the first post in a three-part series. quantumfrontiers.com/2026/01/06/h...

I just received a paper for a Springer journal that was obviously LLM-generated, complete with non-existent theorems, missing proofs, and hallucinated references. The journal has double-blind review. You see the problem? Stone thrown, hand hidden. No one to name-shame.

Now published in PRX Quantum: A robust control framework based on optimized pulse sequences enables faithful realization of arbitrary local Hamiltonians, scaling efficiently to hundreds of qubits. Together with @markusheinrich.bsky.social and Martin Kliesch. go.aps.org/3MmZa10

The QIP 2026 call for papers is out! QIP 2026 will be held in Riga, Latvia from January 24–30, 2026. See you there! qip2026.lu.lv

Are you a student or early-career researcher in quantum computing or quantum information? Then the following is for you. We're organising a focused, community-driven conference at Leibniz Universität Hannover, hosted by Prof. Robert Raussendorf. 🗓️ Save the date: August 27–29, 2025

From Barbara Terhal: On July 17-18 a small symposium "Dreams of Quantum" will be held in honor of David DiVincenzo's work and retirement at RWTH Aachen. The event can be attended by all via a Zoom link. www.quantuminfo.physik.rwth-aachen.de/cms/~bmmwed

Some statistical features of Haar unitaries can be well approximated in log depth, exponentially faster than previously thought. We give evidence that this is a 'truly quantum' effect by deriving linear lower bounds for orthogonal, Clifford, symplectic, matchgate groups scirate.com/arxiv/2506.2...

Happy birthday to this great place for science! And cheers to everyone currently staying there :)

8th International Conference for Young Quantum Information Scientists www.quantiki.org/conference/8...

There is now an official announcement: The TIB has archived the current status of the arXiv: blog.tib.eu/2025/05/14/p...

I'm hiring a postdoc! If you'd like to work with me on quantum learning, error correction, quantum algorithms, and FTQC at Virginia Tech in the Washington, DC metro area, please apply here: careers.pageuppeople.com/968/cw/en-us...

Fully-funded four-year PhD position on random circuits and shadows for many-body physics. Interested in working on fundamental problems and take it all the way to applications? Join my new team at U Cologne and Matteo Rizzi's group at FZ Jülich! Deadline: 18 May www.fz-juelich.de/de/karriere/...

We provide an efficient method to engineer arbitrary many-body Hamiltonians also robust against various dominant errors. I will present these results next Wednesday at #QCTIP2025. arxiv.org/abs/2410.19903

Encourage your organization to support arXiv. info.arxiv.org/about/fundin...

Bosonic Randomized Benchmarking with Passive Transformations journals.aps.org/prxquantum/a... We extend the popular randomized benchmarking (RB) protocol to bosonic systems, allowing to benchmark passive transformations using a small number of samples. Now in PRX Quantum!

Happy Pi day!!!

The registration deadline of the main event of the year on quantum computing theory in practice (#QCTiP2025) will be #tomorrow, anywhere on Earth. qctip2025.com

We provide a classical simulation of DWave quantum "s-word" paper. Here it is arxiv.org/abs/2503.08247 , great work by Linda Mauron at the CQS Lab, check it out! (1/4)

I have a positive update regarding this matter: The German National Library of Science and Technology in Hannover (TIB, www.tib.eu) confirmed that they will download and archive the entire arxiv.org as a safety measure.

PhD position on sample-efficient quantum gate calibration at FZ Jülich @fz-juelich.de, jointly supervised by Prof. Dr. Felix Motzoi (PGI-8) and Dr. Markus Heinrich (University of Cologne @unicologne.bsky.social). #QuantumComputing www.quantiki.org/position/phd...

FZ Jülich is hiring a PhD candidate which will be co-supervised by myself at U Cologne. Interested in benchmarking/characterisation, in working in a highly collaborative environment, and want to see your work being used in experiments? Consider applying! www.fz-juelich.de/en/careers/j...

Our paper on the robustness of classical shadows under gate-dependent noise has been published in PRL! Many thanks to my great collaborators Raphael Brieger, Ingo Roth, and Martin Kliesch! journals.aps.org/prl/abstract...

Thanks @zlatko-minev.bsky.social and hello bluesky world!

I think it would be a good time to reinstantiate the mirror network for the # arXiv. It’s an essential piece of the global research community in math, physics, computer-science and adjacent fields. Under the current circumstances it should not only be hosted in the US. #quantum #math #physics #cs

Our sixth and final long plenary is a merged talk featuring two presentations. Details and overview below! @felixled.bsky.social

Hello world! The quantum journal is now on BlueSky!

🎬… and cut. We are done recording lectures for my course “Quantum Computational Physics”. Tune in if you want to do “quantum on quantum”: concepts, algorithms, and practical computational skills to simulate quantum many-body systems on digital quantum computing platforms. vimeo.com/showcase/Qua...

Wozu ein Quantenjahr? Braucht die Quantentechnologie mehr Aufmerksamkeit und noch mehr Hype? 💡 Ganz im Gegenteil. Wir brauchen weniger Hype und mehr Verständnis! Mehr dazu in meinem Editorial in der aktuellen @ct.de und online (free): www.heise.de/meinung/Komm...

Just a friendly reminder that applications to our summer school are open until January 19th 2025!! Apply here if you haven't: lanl-summer-school-programs.wizehive.app/program/quan... Or please complete your application by the 19th

The deadline for talk submissions at QCTiP 2025 is coming up! Consider submitting a talk until January 10.

Saw these climbing shoes on sale earlier… there’ll be articles on quantum bouldering before you know it

Here is the referee report for that paper. :) Same would apply here.

I'm hiring a postdoc to work with me at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign! For details and how to apply, visit felixleditzky.info/postdoc2024.... Applications received by January 10 (AoE) will receive full consideration. Please share!
