Nash embedding: the quantum computing toolkit every developer have

Title: Nash embedding: the quantum computing toolkit every classical developer must have

Abstract: First generation quantum processors are commercially available, but they are noisy, and the qubits they process are faulty. To develop robust, noise-free and fault-tolerant quantum hardware and software tools, revisiting robust mathematical methods that model the interface of conventional and quantum devices is crucial. In this talk, I will revisit the other famous theorem of Nobel laureate John Nash, and show how it is the right tool for the job at hand. To make the talk accessible to a wider audience, I will keep the mathematical technicalities to a minimum while preserving the essential idea.
