The Quantum Plumber's Problem

Recent work quantified the notion of quantum counterfactual gain for an extended Elitzur-Vaidman bomb test style scenario, through a connection to the negativity of the Kirkwood-Dirac quasiprobability distribution. We here extend this work to identifying quantum advantage in a new scenario, which we term the ``Quantum...

Quantum Approximate Optimisation Algorithm for Protein Sidechain Packing

A constraint-preserving ansatz is introduced, pairing a W-state initialisation with a cyclic XY ring mixer, that enforces one-hot rotamer validity without penalty terms while keeping two-qubit gate scaling linear in the rotamer count.

Impact of Data Loss in Postprocessing on Training and Inference of Quantum Neural Networks

A layout-based marginalisation fix is implemented, merged into the GitHub codebase as Pull Request \#1041, that makes \texttt{SamplerQNN} postprocessing forward-compatible with current and upcoming hardware.
