A quantum problem once described as impossible for classical computers has now been solved using relatively modest hardware. Researchers used tensor networks to compress the overwhelming wave function ...

Using a conventional computer and cutting-edge mathematical tools and code, physicists at the Center for Computational Quantum Physics (CCQ) at the Simons Foundation's Flatiron Institute and ...

Quantum computing firm D-Wave says its devices can solve problems that would be virtually impossible for classical computers – but two separate research groups have now cast doubt on the claim. Dries ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Gil Press writes about technology, entrepreneurs and innovation. The hottest technology today and the emerging most-promising ...

Quantum-inspired algorithms can simulate turbulent fluid flows on a classical computer much faster than existing tools, slashing computation times from several days on a large supercomputer to just ...
