A weekly seminar on Friday afternoons at 2:30 pm (GMT+3) held via Zoom that are typically an hour and a half in length, including questions. In fall 2022 we focused on the mathematics of quantum computing with a particular emphasis on measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC). In spring 2023 we are emphasizing classical simulation of quantum circuits.

The schedule of the seminar series, including the abstracts, titles, and corresponding references are available at: bilkent.herokuapp.com/bilkentmath/published/Bilkent+quantum+computing

Depending on speaker preference seminar talks will be available on YouTube at: www.youtube.com/channel/UCLrmyGpqxyeVpTcA1b5HcMw

NOTE: Talks may be held more/less frequently depending on availability of speakers and may also change time of day to accommodate speakers in other time zones.
