Abstract: We consider the optimal regulation problem for nonlinear control-affine dynamical systems. Whereas the linearquadratic regulator (LQR) considers optimal control of a linear system with ...

For half a century, computing advanced in a reassuring, predictable way. Transistors—devices used to switch electrical ...

How can quantum field theories be best formulated on a lattice to optimally simulate them on a computer? The answer comes ...

Quantum technology is moving—albeit slowly—from theory to proof-of-concept in finance, and it may become one of the most disruptive forces in banking and fintech over the next decade.

The Northwestern CS Theory Group and Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago co-hosted the Junior Theorists Workshop held ...

When the 49ers lost in the playoffs, some fans embraced a theory about electromagnetic waves instead of facing reality.

A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...

Replication is a cornerstone of science, yet even in the natural sciences, attempts to reproduce results do not always succeed. Quantum computing promises machines that can solve certain problems far ...

Abstract: This paper delves into the innovative application of quantum computing to solve complex multi-die FPGA (FieldProgrammable Gate Array) routing challenges. Leveraging the Quantum Approximate ...

Roula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favourite stories in this weekly newsletter. After trying out algorithmic trading on a quantum computer, HSBC recently joined a growing list of companies to ...

Long-term threats to Bitcoin’s security are creeping up faster than markets expect, analyst warns. About one-third of all Bitcoin “appears vulnerable to long-range quantum attacks.” BlackRock also ...

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says there’s a massive race for AI computing power, which could raise questions about how much will be left for crypto mining. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said demand for computing ...
