The QAT Team (Quantum computing Architectures, Algorithms, Applications and their Theory) is located at the Computer Science department of École Normale Supérieure in Paris.
Our research group believes that the development of Quantum Information Processing requires a holistic approach that integrates architectures, algorithms, and applications. We recognize that applications are crucial for end-users, but they cannot be achieved without the necessary enablers, which are algorithms and architectures. Moreover, the practical impact of this technology on current and future hardware depends on a constant interplay between these three topics, especially given the limited hardware resources available.
To this end, our research program is focused on developing advanced theoretical tools that can help us understand the capabilities of quantum computers, improve their design for specific algorithms, and unlock new functionalities using quantum information processing. By taking this integrated approach, we hope to advance the state-of-the-art in Quantum Information Processing and provide valuable insights for future developments.
