IQUIST Seminar Series

Abstract: To harness the full potential of quantum information processing in noisy systems, we need efficient quantum error correction schemes tailored to the dominant hardware-specific noise sources and application requirements. I will present quantum encoding designs aimed at suppressing practically relevant errors in AMO and solid-state systems. I will also explore quantum codes optimized for various applications, including computing, communication, and sensing.

Bio: Liang Jiang is a professor in the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago. Jiang received his BS from Caltech in 2004 and PhD from Harvard University in 2009. He was a faculty member at Yale University during 2012-2019. His research focuses on using quantum control and error correction to build large scalable quantum systems. Jiang is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and also a recipient of the Sloan Research Fellowship, the David and Lucile Packard Foundation Fellowship, and the APS Landauer-Bennett Award.
