While recent advances have established efficient quantum algorithms for preparing Gibbs states of finite-dimensional systems, comparable complexity results for bosonic and other infinite-dimensional models remain unexplored. We introduce the first general rigorous Gibbs sampling framework for bosonic many-body systems, showing that physically relevant bosonic models admit gapped dissipative genera...

For quantum algorithms for problems in which the task is to compute an entire field of values, like e.g. computational fluid dynamics (CFD), it is often proposed amplitude encoding w.r.t. multiple qubits; however, the efforts implied by it for initialization and read-out are not addressed. This work is devoted specifically to this issue: It reviews different encoding schemes in quantum computing, ...

We propose a general framework for computing Retarded Green's Functions (RGFs) on quantum computers by recasting their evaluation as a problem of circuit differentiation. Our proposal is based on real-time evolution and specifically designed circuit components, which we refer to as circuit perturbations, acting as a direct representation of the external perturbative force within the quantum circui...

The phrase ``buy a quantum computer'' hides several different procurement problems. An institution may be seeking cloud access for teaching, reserved capacity for research, a local instrument for hardware training, an optimization appliance, or a strategic installation that reshapes facilities, staffing, and budgets. Because these choices differ in purpose, operating burden, and useful lifetime, t...

Code-switching offers a route to universal, fault-tolerant quantum computation by circumventing the limitation implied by the Eastin-Knill theorem against a universal transversal gate set within a single quantum code. Here, we present a fault-tolerant code-switching protocol between two versions of the $[[8, 3, 2]]$ code. One version supports weakly fault-tolerant single-qubit Clifford gates, whil...

We investigate quench dynamics in the quantum $S=1/2$ XXZ antiferromagnetic chain with staggered and anisotropic interactions in the flat-band limit. Our quench protocol interchanges the odd- and even-bond strengths of a fully dimerized chain, enabling us to derive exact time-dependent states for arbitrary even system sizes by working in the Bell basis. We obtain closed-form, size-independent expr...

We present a quantum algorithm for simulating rovibrational Hamiltonians on fault-tolerant quantum computers. The method integrates exact curvilinear kinetic energy operators and general-form potential energy surfaces expressed in a hybrid finite-basis/discrete-variable representation. The Hamiltonian is encoded as a unitary quantum circuit using a quantum read-only memory construction based on th...

A novel design is presented for a permanent magnet array to address specific challenges with scalable trapped-ion quantum computing systems. Design and optimization of this magnet geometry is motivated by concepts for large-scale Quantum Charge-Coupled Device (QCCD) architectures. This proposal is relevant to magnetic field gradient schemes for laser-free entanglement using long-wavelength radiati...

The Josephson junction is the fundamental nonlinear building block of superconducting quantum technologies. Its macroscopic quantum tunneling physics underpins superconducting quantum computing, sensing, and communication, but scaling these platforms to utility-scale architectures places increasingly stringent demands on junction materials, interfaces, and fabrication. In quantum computing, these ...

Integrating quantum mechanics into drug discovery marks a decisive shift from empirical trial-and-error toward quantitative precision. However, the prohibitive cost of ab initio molecular dynamics has historically forced a compromise between chemical accuracy and computational scalability. This paper identifies the convergence of High-Performance Computing (HPC), Machine Learning (ML), and Quantum...
