My paper with Andrew Projansky on the entanglement spectrum of matchgate circuits has now been published in Quantum. Check it out here: quantum-journal.org/papers/q-2024-…

Now in Quantum: Entanglement spectrum of matchgate circuits with universal and non-universal resources by Andrew M. Projansky, Joshuah T. Heath, and James D. Whitfield doi.org/10.22331/q-202…

An obscure request: does anyone know where I can find a copy/recording of Colm O'Donnell's rendition of "A Stór Mo Chroí" from his album, "Farewell to Evening Dances"? It's not on Spotify, all cds are sold out, and I can't find it on YouTube.

I don’t think it’s a good idea to knock such important work off as “not physics”. Even if one or more recipients are not trained physicists, or they don’t work in a more well-cited subfield, doesn’t mean they aren’t worthy. Their work led to a paradigm shift; it is well deserved

The great physicist Ian Affleck recently passed away. He was a giant in condensed matter and mathematical physics. The field won't be the same without him. phas.ubc.ca/memoriam-ian-a… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Affle… scholar.google.com/citations?user…

Last week, I had the pleasure of speaking (virtually) at Northeastern University's Quantum Matter seminar, where I talked about my work on Homes scaling in electron-phonon superconductors. You can find the recording below: youtube.com/watch?v=2U9DSU…
