Advanced Topics in Theory of Computing; Quantum Control, Metrology, and Error Mitigation for Quantum Algorithm Deployment (CMSC858V, Fall 2023)

Covers the fundamentals of quantum control and metrology in both digital and analog domains: design and calibration of quantum gates, analog quantum operations, quantum state preparation, and measurement; estimation, characterization, and mitigation of environmental noise; synthesis of logical quantum circuits to physical quantum circuits for agiven quantum hardware architecture. Connects quantum control and metrology tothe deployment of quantum algorithms on near-term quantum computers: superconducting qubits, ion trap qubits, and neutral atom qubits.
