Project objective

Quantum computing is expected to transform science, technology and industry. Most current approaches rely almost exclusively on unitary operations, overlooking the transformative role of measurement as an active computational resource. With the recent advent of mid-circuit measurements, quantum systems can now be probed and reset during computation, opening the door to entirely new algorithmic strategies.The DREAM-QA project aims to establish a pioneering framework that harnesses measurement as a driver of quantum information processing. By combining theoretical modelling, advanced numerical simulations, and proof-of-principle demonstrations on near-term quantum hardware, the project will: (i) develop a rigorous understanding of how generalized measurements affect entanglement, correlations, and phases of qubit systems; (ii) design efficient protocols to implement such measurements in practice; and (iii) identify and test algorithmic applications in areas such as quantum machine learning, state preparation, and quantum characterization.DREAM-QA will train the fellow at the interface of quantum information, quantum many-body systems, quantum computation, and quantum measurements, equipping him with unique expertise in measurement-driven quantum algorithms, a field at the core of Europe’s quantum strategy. The fellowship will enhance his independence, project leadership, and international profile, while positioning Europe at the forefront of next-generation quantum technologies.
