Shallow Quantum Circuits

Welcome to the website of Markus Heinrich. I am a senior researcher at the University of Cologne, interested in wide range of topics in quantum information and quantum computing connected to understanding the power and limitations of near-term quantum devices.

As a major tool, we are using random quantum circuits to better understand the generic expressitivity of shallow quantum circuits. We are combining these insights with tensor networks to make existing approaches more efficient and scalable. For more details on my research, click here.

I am also co-organizing the Workshop on Random Quantum Circuits, the first edition of which took place in November 2024 in Amsterdam, and will be continued on a bi-yearly basis.
