The lab theoretically explores quantum computing algorithms and catalysis science.

AboutAbout the lab
Exploring quantum computing and catalysis from theory
The Shimizu Lab (Fundamental Physical Properties Division) studies quantum computing algorithms for systems with many degrees of freedom, as well as catalysis science, from a theoretical standpoint.
Members' research topics include work on new quantum algorithms related to the variational quantum simulator (VQS).
The lab's logo is designed with inspiration from quantum circuits.
"Fundamental physical properties" is one of the names traditionally used for research fields in applied physics at Tohoku University.
Key terms
- Quantum computing algorithm
- The procedure for solving a problem on a machine that computes using the properties of quantum mechanics.
- Catalysis science
- A field that studies the action of catalysts, substances that make chemical reactions proceed more easily without themselves being changed.
- Quantum circuit
- A representation of the flow of a computation as a circuit diagram, with operations applied to qubits arranged in sequence.
