Abstract
Quantum computation and communication have garnered significant interest due to their potent abilities to accelerate complex problems and provide unconditional security, making remarkable progress in recent years. Hybrid quantum computing combines classical and quantum resources to tackle challenging optimization problems, leveraging the strengths of both within the current constraints of quantum computers. In this talk, I will focus on my recent works on quantum computation, communication, and quantum-inspired algorithms for finance, and optimization; then we will discuss some interesting applications as well. Experiments and analyses show many promising results, and our proposed protocols are more effective and efficient than other state-of-the-art methods.Biography
