Happy to welcome Vincent Larivière, the UNESCO chair for open science, to Montreal Polytechnique Polytechnique Mtl this Thursday for a talk about academic publishing. Join us! polymtl.ca/biblio/en/actu…

The panel discussion on the “future of quantum computing” at #qtml2024 features Aram Harrow, Andrew Childs, Scott Aaronson, and Ed Farhi delivers a number of highly insightful points. To date, it is not so clear what #quantumcomputing can deliver for the the unstructured

Supercontinuum's highly sensitive to input's parameters. Machine learning trained on Wigner distros of the input can achieve convergence speedups. Results: 12 fs pulses, full control of dispersive wave, and high-order solutions. 💪Check out aXiv arxiv.org/abs/2411.14410 femtoQ

My deep dive on PsiQuantum — a quantum computing company aiming high & raising huge sums from public and private funders. Can they deliver? nature.com/articles/d4158…

Check out our latest paper on a topic at the intersection of quantum optics and non-Hermitian physics. It is co-first-authored by Polina Blinova, an undergraduate student from Cornell who worked in my research group for two summers, and Evgeny Moiseev, a postdoc in my group.

Exciting news! The call for abstracts for the Quantum Days 2025 poster session is open! Showcase your groundbreaking research at the University of Toronto, connect with peers, and elevate your profile. Student competition included! ⌛️Submit by Jan 6, 2025 🔗2025.quantumdays.ca/en/poster-sess…

Great pic of Daniela in this latest shot at explaining what we mean by negative time (unfortunately, we're a bit delayed getting our own explainer up there)... phys.org/news/2024-12-s… #Quantum #QuantumOptics #NegativeTime

Driving is a privilege, not a right. It should be harder to get/keep your license, and if you have multiple DUIs and/or at-fault accidents, you should lose your license permanently - no matter what age you are.

"No condono la astrología. Divulgarla en los medios de comunicación debería ser tan escandaloso como repartir cigarrillos en los colegios". Una lectura para cerrar la primera semana del 2025.

If you wanna do some simulations of processes where you're heralding non-gaussian states from gaussian states + photon detectors but you want to include realistic errors like loss and distinguishability, you should check out our paper!
