Expérimental et théorique
Quantum computing, and quantum-inspired computing, could be the new frontier in answering complex optimization problems that are historically unsolvable on classical computers. Today’s fastest computers may take millennia to conduct highly complex calculations (NP-hard problems), including combinatorial optimization problems involving many variables. The Coherent Ising Machine (CIM) is the most promising solution to date. The aim of this project is to implement a CIM with water waves and controllable electrostriction. Using little modulated electric rod above the surface it is possible to create “spins” with arbitrary phase and positions. This project is experimental and aim to build this wave computer. It is possible to pursue with a funded thesis.
