Encoding Breakthrough Unlocks New Potential in Neutral-Atom Quantum Computing
QuEra Computing, creator of the world’s first neutral-atom quantum computer named Aquila, in collaboration with researchers from Harvard and Innsbruck Universities, has revealed a novel method for performing a broader range of optimization calculations on neutral-atom machines. The findings overcome the native connectivity limitations of the qubits in Rydberg atom arrays, enabling them to solve more complex optimization problems, including maximum independent sets on graphs with arbitrary connectivity and quadratic…
