Speaker: Dr. Stefanie Günther, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Title: Optimal quantum control for multi-qubit operations via time-parallel multiple-shooting Abstract: Advances in the design of quantum technologies has led to rapidly increasing numbers of qubits in current quantum computing hardware. However, accurately controlling these large quantum systems remains a fundamental challenge
Speaker: Eckhard Meinrenken, University of Toronto Title: Symplectic geometry of Teichmueller spaces for surfaces with boundary Abstract : The moduli space of hyperbolic metrics on a compact oriented surface without boundary has a well-known symplectic structure. In this talk, I will describe a generalization to the (infinite-dimensional) moduli space of
