Ramsey's Theorem - Experimental Determination With Quantum Algorithm

Experimental Determination With Quantum Algorithm

A paper claiming that an experimental implementation of a quantum algorithm solving R(m,2) for 3 ≤ m ≤ 8 has been recently pre-published. The research team lead by Zhengbing Bian, of D-Wave Systems used 84 qubits, with a total of 28 qubits used for calculation.

Famous quotes containing the words experimental and/or quantum:

    Whenever a man acts purposively, he acts under a belief in some experimental phenomenon. Consequently, the sum of the experimental phenomena that a proposition implies makes up its entire bearing upon human conduct.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    A personality is an indefinite quantum of traits which is subject to constant flux, change, and growth from the birth of the individual in the world to his death. A character, on the other hand, is a fixed and definite quantum of traits which, though it may be interpreted with slight differences from age to age and actor to actor, is nevertheless in its essentials forever fixed.
    Hubert C. Heffner (1901–1985)
