Presented By: Leinweber Center for Theoretical Physics
HET Brown Bag Seminar | Supersymmetry and Computation
Marcos Crichigno (Imperial College)
I will discuss various aspects of the interplay between supersymmetry and the theory of classical and quantum computation. I will first introduce basic elements of computational complexity theory and show that the Witten index problem is #P-complete and thus intractable. I will then discuss the role of supersymmetry in defining a special subclass of quantum algorithms and describe the "quantum Witten machine," a quantum algorithm for the generalized Witten index.
