Notational convenience is great, but: It can be used to hide important complexity. Worse, it is too easily confused for mathematical and/or physical simplicity. Feynman made this point very nicely in the Feynman Lectures (see pictures).

Why this paper is for me the end of a long journey and the beginning of a new one (1/n) #physics #cosmology #quantum arxiv.org/abs/2404.15416

MLPs are so foundational, but are there alternatives? MLPs place activation functions on neurons, but can we instead place (learnable) activation functions on weights? Yes, we KAN! We propose Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KAN), which are more accurate and interpretable than MLPs.🧵

A new Quinfog paper is out in the arXiv!🔥 "Topological, multi-mode amplification induced by non-reciprocal, long-range dissipative couplings" by C. Vega (Carlos Vega), A. Muñoz de las Heras (Alberto Muñoz de las Heras), D. Porras (Diego Porras Torre) and A. González-Tudela (A.G.Tudela)

➡️ Non-reciprocity, topology, amplification... So many cool concepts meet in the paper we uploaded last week to the arXiv. 😁 Sooo... let's talk about it in a thread! 🧵

New preprints on cavity-QED materials! arxiv.org/abs/2406.11957 and arxiv.org/abs/2406.11971 With my fantastic colleagues at Universidad Zaragoza, we explore the linear response of these systems and even find Bound Polariton States in some quantum magnets. CSIC IFF_CSIC INMAdivulga

I just got a Ramon y Cajal fellowship, named after this handsome guy, who gave up a promising career as a body builder but ended up getting a Nobel prize. Anybody that has spent 5 minutes with me in the last 15 years probably knows that this is a life's dream coming true. 🙃🙃

El otro día A.G.Tudela y yo estuvimos en la sede central del CSIC para recoger el premio a Tesis relevante de manos de su presidenta. No podía haber un mejor broche final a los cuatro años trabajando juntos. ¡Muchas gracias, y enhorabuena a todos los premiados!

This vs geoguesser guy will be like Deep Blue vs Kasparov but for zoomers

New preprint out today with the experimental group of Simone Gasparinetti Wallenberg Centre for Quantum Technology - WACQT Chalmers University of Technology and the theory group of Carlos Sánchez Muñoz CSIC: ”Entanglement of photonic modes from a continuously driven two-level system ” arxiv.org/abs/2407.07991

the nytimes has solved this problem with the craziest “choose your weighted average” visualization ever printed in a newspaper

I am offering a PhD contract funded by the Spanish PIF2024 programme (old FPI) on quantum sensing with open light-matter systems!⚛️ If this sounds interesting and you want to apply, you can do so at the following link: sede.csic.gob.es/tramites/convo… Deadline is Aug. 25! Please share!

I am very happy to announce that I will soon join Inst. Física Teórica as a Ramon y Cajal Fellow ‼️ I am also offering a PhD position on "Quantum Algorithms for High-Energy Physics" ⚛️ Deadline is April 30 and the details can be found here: gonzalez-cuadra.com/open-positions Please share!

"Attention Is All You Need" is such a banger title. So glad the paper of the decade wasn't named some garbo like multi-head self attention mechanisms for enhanced sequence modeling
