Workshop on Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computer System Architecture

About FTQCSA

The pursuit of Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computer (FTQC) represents a promising direction in enhancing computation capability, with far-reaching implications for various fields. However, the research and development of FTQC necessitate a multidisciplinary approach, drawing on expertise from diverse areas, including quantum coding theory, quantum processing unit design, electronics engineering for quantum-classical interfaces, quantum networks, computer architecture, compilation techniques, and FTQC integration with high-performance computing. As we embark on the path to achieving quantum advantage through FTQC, it is clear that sustained efforts are required to scale up FTQC systems while reducing the resources needed to operate them.

The journey toward harnessing the power of FTQC has just begun, and it is essential to recognize that long-term commitment and collaboration are crucial for overcoming the complex challenges ahead. In this context, the motivation behind this workshop lies in the need to foster international cooperation among researchers from diverse disciplines. The primary objective of this workshop is to provide a platform where experts can converge to share their latest advancements, discuss system-level challenges, and collaborate on strategies to accelerate the development of FTQC systems. By facilitating an exchange of ideas and expertise, we aim to drive progress toward realizing quantum advantages.

    • Title: Toward Resource-Efficient Algorithms for Quantum Simulation
    • Abstract: Fault-tolerant quantum computers are expected to enable accurate simulations of quantum systems that are challenging for classical computers. However, the computational resources required by many quantum algorithms remain substantial, making resource reduction an important step toward practical applications. In this talk, I will present some of our recent efforts toward developing and evaluating resource-efficient algorithms for quantum simulation, with a particular focus on molecular ground-state energy estimation. I will discuss approaches that combine quantum computation with classical information to reduce quantum resources, numerical studies of higher-order product formulas for energy estimation, and fundamental limits on the cost of quantum phase estimation. Through these examples, I will highlight both algorithmic opportunities and practical challenges in reducing the computational cost of quantum simulation on future fault-tolerant quantum computers.
