Robust certification of quantum devices

Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Regional Development Fund (ERDF)) under the programme Smart growth - PL - ERDF (2014PL16RFOP001), managing authority: Ministerstwo obsługujące ministra właściwego ds. rozwoju regionalnego. The source names no beneficiary for this operation. Location: Trójmiejski (NUTS PL633); Poland. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 167,685.34; EU co-financing EUR 167,685.34 (co-financing rate 100%), as stated by the source. Runs 2019-07-01 to 2021-09-28.

Summary from Kohesio (English machine translation by the source): Until recently quantum technologies were developed predominantly within the academic environment, but several global tech companies have recently joined the race. The first demonstration of “quantum supremacy”, i.e. quantum devices more powerful than classical supercomputers, is well on its way: both Google and IBM have announced to reach this goal in 2018. Testing is a crucial part of the development process, but methods used for small devices quickly become impractical. Fortunately, quantum physics is well-suited for this task, as it allows to precisely characterise devices under surprisingly weak assumptions. This feature, known as self-testing, is intrinsically related to the fundamental concept of Bell nonlocality. In this project we will develop efficient and robust testing procedures for complex quantum devices based on Bell’s theorem. These will facilitate the design and manufacture of quantum devices and in the long run help quantum technologies become a commercial product.
