Qedma’s quantum error reduction software, running on IBM quantum computers and tested against RIKEN and BlueQubit’s supercomputing resources, has accurately resolved the dynamics of quantum materials unseen in classical simulation.Qedma Quantum Computing, a pioneer in quantum error reduction software and IBM (NYSE: IBM) today announced a breakthrough study demonstrating how trusted, error-mitigated quantum computation is possible, and can be used to explore the physics of materials beyond the capabilities of state-of-the-art classical simulations, including those run on one of the world's most powerful supercomputers. By combining Qedma’s advanced error mitigation software, QESEM, with IBM quantum computers, researchers observed complex and long-lived quantum dynamics in systems of up to 74 qubits. This enabled them to reach a paradigm where multiple state-of-the-art classical approaches failed to provide consistent, reliable answers.
