Really liked this video because you don't often get explanations of all the jargon from someone who literally researched this and understands all the nuance. Great video!
The explanation of topological quantum computing was both informative and interesting. The use of Legos to illustrate its functioning was particularly enjoyable.
Hi, thanks for the great video! I'm an undergraduate student in mathematics, and I aspire to one day become a quantum researchers. During the pandemic, I had been watching materials about quantum computing from Microsoft, and it had been one of my greatest source of inspiration to choose this field of study. I'm glad that despite the hype around AI these days, they still haven't give up on pursuing quantum. Sometimes I feel defeated because of how late I'm coming into this field, but this video has sparked back some of that lost motivation. I won't give up in my pursuit, and again, thank you for the awesome video!
Another QC map! I love these because they help me visualize my favorite aspects of the field into a nice map! Its so clean and intuitive and really helps me organize my thoughts like one of those inspiration boards. Never stop making these maps! This is some of my favorite content on youtube!
Thank you very much sir. I just finished the 3rd year of Physics in college and this means fuel to me. Keep it up please. This kind of videos may not be the most popular, but may be the most useful for future researchers
This video is incredible! I spent a lot of time researching Majorana particles and quasi-particles with topological properties, and you managed to explain it all in less than half an hour. You're amazing! Now I can easily explain this topic to anyone. It's also exciting to see how Microsoft is turning physicists' decades-long dream of fabricating these islands into a reality!
But will it run Crysis? 😂 It's so old it's almost not funny anymore. I guess now you might would say "Can it render a full Pixar movie in near real-time" lol
Fix noise problems in topological computing with 2pc's in one. Make cpu, ram etc doublesided, and use one of them sides as 1 computer and other side the 2 computer. With this you can error correct the main machine (whichever of the 2 that is the main computer) with that other computer, by letting it learn from all the errors from the outside enviroment. 2 pc's in one, i like this idea of mine :D
Don't take this wrong, but all your videos, infographics, and other information has developed within me my first man-crush! Haha . I love how you chop up all the information into bite-sized chunks, how effectively you boil down the comprehensive study of physics, and how especially interesting you make the information. ❤
Great video! I was missing the mention of braids group and more topology, but I get that it's incredibly difficult to contain in one video. Your video helped me understand quasiparticles, thank you!
Great video! I finally have an idea of what topological qubits and Majorana particles are. Very well explained, I liked a lot the Lego analogy. Now I have a better understanding of the work my son is doing at Microsoft Lab. Thanks!
Describing an electron hole as a quasi-particle (collective behavior) is so intuitive. It makes me wonder why I never heard any of my teachers/professors explain it like that when that's quite literally what it is. Otherwise it just sounds like some wand waving explanation.
Lots of things can be quasiparticles and high school/uni teachers never mention them! Magnons, and phonons are two other examples. There, the specific patterns of movement in an atomic lattice creates waves that can be characterized as particles with specific properties (spin, momentum, etc.) and they can even interact with real particles.
That was brilliantly explained !! Such difficult , esoteric concepts to convey and put together but you did it really well. Thank you. Really excited now to follow how this develops
So exciting to see the new development about QC. I have learned the MITXpro course named "Intro to Quantum Computing" last winter vacation and I am really passionate and confident about its future.
There’s a fascinating overlap between this idea and thermodynamic computing: in both cases your ‘bits’ are emergent or supervene on collective behavior of more fundamental parts. And in both situations this insures a certain stability or robustness, because, by design, the system ‘wants’ to maintain these collective states. In a sense, it seems likely that we will figure out how to overcome noise and build error-correcting quantum bits by building them ‘from’ the noise itself.
The fact that I understood everything, yet I have no diploma in physics. I'm just a physics enthusiast who has personally been studying 100s of hours beyond the last mini-physics class I had to do in uni, in my CS undergraduate study!
the topo quantum computer will have its own achilles heel.....they aren't far enough along with it yet to make even a single qubit but when they get to first topo qubit it will have its own version of 'noise' that is so far not yet identified but probably is thermal in origin
20:42 When you say that the Majorana particles exhibit topological properties, what does that... mean? The Majorana particle pairs are in some mathematical sense shaped differently depending on whether there are an even or odd number of electrons in them? Coming from complex systems theory, we often think of physics and atomic physics in particular as being the domain of both simple complexity, where analytic reduction works well, as well as the domain of disordered complexity, where predicting the motion of a small number of particles is difficult (the classic three body problem), but statistical aggregates generally work to derive the collective behavior of a system from the behavior of individual particles e.g. pressure in gasses or temperature in solids. Whereas it's higher scales where we tend to see ordered complexity where emergent behaviors, well, emerge. It's very interesting to me that at the subatomic level we're back to seeing emergent behavior like these Majorana quasi-particles.
It’s interesting if you know about analog and digital computing is that cubits work kinda like both. There’s a technically continuous output so you can read more data while only having a discrete or digitized output that you directly read from
Thank you very much for sharing your insights and knowledge filled videos !! Intelligent and professional !! Outstanding !! Greetings from California … I wish you and folks good health , success and happiness !! Much Love ✌️😎💕
I feel like there are two big things here that seem a bit unexplained: 1) So the state appears to be encoded by the parity of the number of electrons between the quantum dots, but this seems very binary (either 0 for even, 1 for odd)… how do you get the intermediate states necessary to be a qubit? My guess is that there is some non-zero probability the electrons are somewhat outside of the quantum dots a la quantum tunnelling. 2) What specific topological properties do Majorana particles specifically satisfy?
Another thing I missed was how the superposition stage is created. You only showed the 0 and 1 stages, but I guess you can have the stages in between as well?
Great presentation - thanks! I'm wondering at about 13:00 what happened to the third "state" of the quantum device. I only see two states, so we're back to a binary computer it seems. I just discovered you through your math poster I saw at my local community college near San Diego, California. I'm going through your channel and site now. Thanks again.
The superposition of states is only useful when it’s combined with other qubits, arranged as quantum logic gates. Then the output is the finished product.
Hello sir since there are a lot of people from different countries around the world that follow you and want to learn English I hope that you make a vedio about the map of English language.
Great explanation (and map), thanks! I know I'm missing a lot here but I don't quite see the advantage of these Qubits. The way you have explained it, they still have only two states - even electron number = zero, odd electron number = one? How does this differ from traditional 0/1 digital binary bits?
Every video I watched about quantum computing explains how such computers encode the quantum bits into physical media (and you did it well) but never explains how they do computation (and imo that's the most interesting part). Are you working also on that? Thanks
The problems that can be solved on quantum computers can also be solved on classical computers; any computable problem is computable regardless of the computational method used to compute it. What essentialy changes is the algorithmic complexity of the computational method being used.
Legos are a gift for science and engineering lol. I had to make a presentation about chemical inhibitors for the company I worked for at the time and I used legos to describe the process. It worked great.
As an aside: While both involve surface-level operations, RPA automates tasks while topological quantum computing utilizes surface electrons for quantum computation.
So, electrons odd or even for 2 of the possible states of a qubit, and the 'read-out' doesn't destroy the quantum information? Or it's necessary that the quant info is sent to both ends of the nanowire to not de cohere that info, or is it only to protect against noise? So, they will have another topology for the other states a qubit can be in, and then the combination of the two will work together?
You explained everything perfectly. Yet, I didn’t really get why the construction justifies calling it topological. There didn’t seem to be a build in safe mechanism relying on topology per se, more like a structural redundancy to reduce noice.
Every computer is a quantum computer, computers compute the Quantity or Quantum of values. Semi conductors of the computers in ROOM TEMPERATURE have reached their operating frequency's speed limit. Transistors are ionic switches that with higher frequency of switching they get hot and create errors / noise. The most practical way of cooling the processors is with Heat Sinks and Fans which we have been using. Quantum Computers are the higher frequency computers with liquified gas cooling pipes. Concept and the technique of parallel processing is as old as the invention of IC (integrated circuit). We can connect multiple fan cooled regular computers in parallel to achieve the same performance of a Quantum Computer, all we need is a synchronization algorithm to compensate for network latency, same as the one for supper computers.
man I feel like a brainlet but despite that I am fortunate enough be able listen to galaxy brained individuals talk about the cutting edge of computing
9:09 yeah, it is common for atoms to have dislocations, in which an entire row of atoms shifts, which is normal when many tiny balls are next to each other, in this case those tiny balls are atoms
I still dont get how they can have values between 1 and 0 if it only measures odd or even which are 2 states, if anyone can explain it to me I'd appreciate it a lot
Great explanation. Why are we still only interested in 0 and 1 though? I thought quantum computers used 4 states per qubit. I haven’t caught up on this stuff for a few years.
Killer video. Obviously you don't want to step on MS toes, as they both hosted and sponsored this video. So there is something I'm wondering still about this topic: your personal opinion. Do you think this tech will make them the quantum computing leaders?
I'm a bit confused how having a wire with some number of electrons on it can work as a cubit, how is that different that having a chain of tiny gates in a traditional computer?
Really liked this video because you don't often get explanations of all the jargon from someone who literally researched this and understands all the nuance. Great video!
The explanation of topological quantum computing was both informative and interesting. The use of Legos to illustrate its functioning was particularly enjoyable.
And then there's me still struggling to with algebraic topology
Agree!
I can't believe i just understood topological quantum computing without prior background knowledge. You did amazing.
The best introduction on topological quantum computing I have ever watched so far. Excellent job!!

Don’t worry. Just follow your inspiration, and you will become one of the best. It’s not so easy, but it’s not so hard either.
@@Sralit Thank you! :)

Can’t even play pong with them yet
But will it run Crysis? 😂 It's so old it's almost not funny anymore. I guess now you might would say "Can it render a full Pixar movie in near real-time" lol
Majorana, the Quasi
It does not work for classical tasks

Love this video and these kinds of videos. I’d had a bit of confusing as to what topological qc was, so thank you!
I studied topology and homotopy theory and I am fascinated by technology. Thanks for this video!

Hello 👋
Can you tell us which software you use to crate these maps?
Thanks in advance

Wow, this was so interesting. Thanks!
Hi
Thanks for the great video. Can you do a video on the latest news about Quantum on a chip and photonic quantum computing, coming from MIT.
You really are a super quantum science explainer! Thanks!

The "third" state, or the difference, would be the superposition of having an even or odd number of electrons, I think.
The superposition of states is only useful when it’s combined with other qubits, arranged as quantum logic gates. Then the output is the finished product.
Brilliant explanation!

thats still being debated

I know Philosophy isn't a science, but could you please consider making The Map of Philosophy?
I'd absolutely appreciate that one!
Legos are a gift for science and engineering lol. I had to make a presentation about chemical inhibitors for the company I worked for at the time and I used legos to describe the process. It worked great.

Can you do one of these maps on the US financial system?
every time you say 'jiggling it' ..... phwoar x

So the superposition we are taking advantage of is the number of electrons in the wire?
Have you seen Extropic's Thermodynamic Computer? Love your channel ❤
man I feel like a brainlet
but despite that I am fortunate enough be able listen to galaxy brained individuals talk about the cutting edge of computing
super cool I'll try to do my PhD there
Did their use to be a map of doctors on this channel? It talked about all types of doctors
thanks for this video!!
9:09 yeah, it is common for atoms to have dislocations, in which an entire row of atoms shifts, which is normal when many tiny balls are next to each other, in this case those tiny balls are atoms
17:46 Why is Atom Computing listed two times?
Any idea on how's D wave company is doing in this field now?
I still dont get how they can have values between 1 and 0 if it only measures odd or even which are 2 states, if anyone can explain it to me I'd appreciate it a lot
but if they only measure if there are odd or even electrons, where is the inbetween?
Great explanation.
Why are we still only interested in 0 and 1 though? I thought quantum computers used 4 states per qubit. I haven’t caught up on this stuff for a few years.
I have one question. Why we have Majorana particles in the pairs of 2. Why can't we have them as a collection of lets say 20 50 or 100 ?
Killer video. Obviously you don't want to step on MS toes, as they both hosted and sponsored this video. So there is something I'm wondering still about this topic: your personal opinion. Do you think this tech will make them the quantum computing leaders?

Nvidia has supercharged denoiser cores. Get ready.
This resembles a lot the development of the blue led. Obviously much more professional
Y el mapa de la inteligencia artificial?
So if i am correct quasi particle are analogous to molecule.
I highly encourage you to read 'majorana returns' from Frank Wilczek, it is very readible and enlightening
