Analytical Quantum Complexity RIKEN Hakubi Research Team

RIKEN Hakubi Team Leader: Tomotaka Kuwahara (Ph.D.)

Research Summary

The field of revealing the computational complexity of quantum many-body system simulations when using a classical computer (or quantum computer) is called Hamiltonian Complexity. In particular, from the viewpoint of quantum supremacy of quantum computers and quantum algorithms employing NISQ (i.e., a small quantum computer without error correction), Hamiltonian complexity has become one of the most important research topics in the field of quantum information. Our research aims to solve open mathematical problems in Hamiltonian complexity.
