The Quantum Mechanics Golf Tournament Nine + Dine

Come play in The Quantum Mechanics Golf Tournament and join the fight against cancer

The Quantum Mechanics are asking for your support in the fight against cancer.

The team, made of University of 蓝莓视频, Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) and Perimeter Institute members, is participating in the Grand Ride in honour of Pearl Sullivan, Dean of Engineering and Raymond Laflamme, Executive Director of IQC at the University of 蓝莓视频 and all those in our communities who have been touched by cancer.

Colloquium: Search for a toric code topological order in the kagome antiferromagnet

Jiawei Mei - Southern University of Science and Technology, China

The toric code is a topological quantum error correcting code, and an example of a stabilizer code, defined on a two-dimensional spin lattice. It also represents the simplest example of topological order -- Z2 topological order that was first studied in the context of Z2 spin liquid. I will talk about our recent progress in the search for a toric code topological order in the kagome antiferromagnetic spin system.

CryptoWorks21 Distinguished Lecture: Tools of Commercialization

鈥淗e who is good with a hammer thinks everything is a nail.鈥

- Modified quote from the original by Abraham Maslow


How does one sell security?聽How does one commercialize such nebulous concepts such as 鈥淭rust鈥, 鈥淪ecurity鈥 and 鈥淐ryptography鈥?聽 Cryptography, which is just one building block of security, is based on other more abstract building blocks such as algorithms which have a foundation on hard mathematical problems.
