Competition quantum programming, deadline 15 Jan

Dear all, Nuriya and I are hosting a quantum computing competition. It's open to ETH students (including PhD students), and the prize for the winning team is a trip to Sochi, Russia, for a winter school and hackathon co-organised with the Russian Quantum Center. The problems that students have to solve are nice: simulate quantum pigeons and compute superpositions of transverals to symmetry groups. All the information here: http://squids.ch/2018/12/no-1-in-c-not-major/ Do share with your students! Best, Lídia

Hi all, Today we’ll hear from our shorter-term visitor, Rajai Nasser. He works mainly in classical information theory, and he’ll tell us about some of his latest work, either on polar codes or a new approach to constructing good codes in general. Best Joe
