Quantum computers get a lot of people excited because they solve problems in a manner that's fundamentally different from existing hardware. A certain class of mathematical problems, called ...

Quick verification A quantum computer has been shown to be faster than a classical one at verifying the solution to an NP-complete problem when provided with only a ...

Recently, a research team from Hokkaido University made significant progress in the complexity study of the Hitting Geodesic Intervals (HGI) problem. The HGI problem aims to find a small set of ...

Thousands of notoriously difficult problems in computer science are actually the same problem in disguise If you're enjoying this article, consider supporting our award-winning journalism by ...

We need to combine DNA based computing and Quantum computing. With that we may actually know if Schrodinger's cat is dead or alive. Since there's been no mathematical breakthrough, the amount of ...
