Spontaneous structural rearrangements play a central role in the organization and function of complex biomolecular systems. In principle, physics-based computer simulations like Molecular Dynamics (MD) enable us to investigate these thermally …
Di quantum computing si sente parlare da un po’ di tempo, ma non sempre viene presentato con chiarezza.
Per raccontarlo come si deve, ci siamo affidati al Professor Philipp Hans Juergen Hauke, professore associato del Dipartimento di Fisica …
Sampling equilibrium ensembles of dense polymer mixtures is a paradigmatically hard problem in computational physics, even in lattice-based models. Here, we develop a formalism based on interacting binary tensors that allows for tackling this problem …
Characterizing thermally activated transitions in high-dimensional rugged energy surfaces is a very challenging task for classical computers. Here, we develop a quantum annealing scheme to solve this problem. First, the task of finding the most …
