SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum Research Institute | Unleashing Analog Quantum Computing
DESCRIPTION:Zoom: In the Meeting Invite\nIn-Person: Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project\, 2301 Bonisteel Blvd\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48109\, USA\, Room 2000\n\nAbstract: Recent advances are expanding the power and flexibility of analog quantum platforms\, opening new routes for both quantum simulation and quantum information science. In this talk\, I will discuss how modest levels of control can be used to access key observables and dynamical regimes in strongly correlated fermionic systems\, including settings with pairing\, long-range interactions\, and cooling. I will also describe how globally controlled analog platforms can nevertheless achieve universal quantum computation\, and how optimal-control techniques can be used to engineer complex effective interactions and topological dynamics. Finally\, I will outline recent progress toward approximate error correction tailored to analog quantum systems. Together\, these developments point toward a broader view of analog quantum computing\, in which large-scale quantum devices are not only simulators of specific models\, but flexible computational resources whose capabilities can be systematically unlocked.\n\nBio\nSusanne Yelin's research interests are in theoretical quantum optics and quantum information science. Current research directions include quantum control of ultracold polar molecules\, investigation of novel coherence-based optical elements\, single-photon nonlinear optics using dipolar systems\, coherent metamaterials and negative refractivity\, coherent control in condensed matter systems\, and superradiance.

DESCRIPTION:Zoom: In the Meeting Invite\nIn-Person: West Hall 411\n\nAbstract:\nThinking Inside the Box: Quantum Many-Body Frontiers with Ultracold Fermions\nRecent progress in the control of complex quantum systems has made it possible to revisit\nlong-standing questions\, realize thought experiments once deemed inaccessible\, and explore\nnew terrain. Our contribution to this progress has been the development of an experimental\nplatform that creates ultracold quantum fluids in spatiotemporally programmable optical\npotentials\, engineered with advanced electro-optic devices.\nIn this talk\, I will share our explorations into the physics of fermions confined in ‘boxes of\nlight’\, a deceptively simple stage that gives rise to remarkably rich behavior [1]. Highlights\ninclude few-body recombination in multicomponent fermions [2\,3]\, the first observation of\nthe quantum Joule–Thomson effect for fermions [4]\, strong-drive spectroscopy of Fermi-\npolaron quasiparticles [5]\, the first direct observation of the Lindhard response [6]\, the\nobservation of the emergence and breakdown of Fermi’s Golden Rule in a strongly\ninteracting system [7]\, and the unveiling of a new correspondence between short-time and\nlong-time behavior in quantum dynamics [8]. Together\, these studies span a wide range of\ntopics—thermodynamics\, few-body physics\, quantum impurity problems\, and\nhydrodynamics—showcasing both long-predicted effects finally brought into view and\nsurprising new phenomena.\n[1] N.
