What do "$i$-th basic network", "quantum multiplexers" and "quantum parallelism" mean in this context? How are they beneficial?
I have been reading the paper A quantum-implementable neural network model (Chen et al., 2017) for a few days now, but failed to understand how exactly their algorithm offers a speedup over the ...

Who first studied nonlocal games with probabilistic predicate?
For some background, a nonlocal game consists of questions $x,y\in X,Y$ and answers $a,b \in A,B$; the pair of questions $x,y$ is asked with probability $\mu(x,y)$, and a referee accepts the pair of ...

What is the best way to use loop statements on a quantum computer?
I am interested in solving a time dependent linear partial differential equation of the form $Ax=b$ which, in classical computing, would amount to looping over solutions of $Ax=b$ where $b$ is updated ...

General mixed integer linear programming problem with quantum computers
I was wondering if anyone had a sample code for running a general MILP problem. I saw some coding for some very specific problems and I thought they were kind of far away from what we needed.

Can anybody explain or suggest a good reference on how to make a modular exponentiation circuit for N=15 with any coprime base?
I have read many papers related to it but in every paper, they just show the circuit of order finding algorithm for N=15, but did not explain what is the procedure to make it.
It will be great if ...

Results from looped experiments on IBM Q different than individual experiments
I'm experiencing an issue while using Qiskit where the counts from a job return vastly different values when ran in a loop or as an array of circuits as opposed to single experiments when run by ...
