Quantum information processing has the potential to revolutionise the future of information and communication technologies. Project QAP will capitalize on recent developments in small-scale applications, involving a few quantum particles. This will allow us to implement important new quantum technologies relevant to communications and simulations, and provide enabling physics for larger scale quantum computers that will follow in the long term, beyond the time frame of this consortium effort.

QAP is a partnership of 35 industrial, academic and governmental institutions across the EU and around the world. Its mission is to work on qubit applications that are physically realised in photonic, atomic and solid state systems, and to stimulate pursuit of the commercialisation of innovation. NEW!

Exact Relaxation in a Class of Nonequilibrium Quantum Lattice Systems

M. Cramer, C. M. Dawson, J. Eisert, and T. J. Osborne

Why do systems dynamically relax to a statistical equilibrium state? This intriguing but old question is enjoying a  renaissance recently. Recent work by QAP researchers, published in Physical Review Letters, has answered this question for a class of models that are idealized instances of the Bose-Hubbard model. [read more]
