I found somebody's keys (one of the keys fits the office lock, so I know it's our group). They're on the coffee machine in Siberia. Cheers, nicolas

Hi Quanta We will not meet on Friday because we are celebrating the birthday of our great nation. However there is a seminar of interest on Thursday with information below. We will meet on Friday of next week. Happy Fourth. Best, Eddie Optimization of Quantum Hamiltonian Evolution“ Prof. Apoorva Patel Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore Thursday, July 3rd, 11am RLE Haus Room (36-428) Abstract: Given a quantum Hamiltonian and its evolution time, the corresponding unitary evolution operator can be constructed in many different ways, corresponding to different trajectories between the desired end-points. A choice among these trajectories can then be made to obtain the best computational complexity and control over errors. It is shown how a construction based on Grover's algorithm scales linearly in time and only logarithmically in error bound, and is clearly superior to the scheme based on straightforward application of the Lie-Trotter formula. Bio: Apoorva Patel is a Professor at the Centre for High Energy Physics, Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore. He is notable for his work on quantum algorithms and their applications, and quantum chromodynamics. He obtained his PhD from CalTech in 1984 and was Scientific Associate, Theory Division, CERN in 1987-89 before joining IISc. *********************************************** Edward Farhi Cecil and Ida Green Professor of Physics Director Center for Theoretical Physics Massachusetts Institute of Technology Building 6 room 300 Cambridge MA 02139 617 253 4871 *********************************************** _______________________________________________ qip mailing list qip(a)mit.edu http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/qip

>From LinkedIn:Dear all, I got this in LinkedInHello Professor I am a recruiter working with a well establisehd company in the New Jersey area that is a leader in developing materials and OLED's for the display industry for phones, tablets, and others. The company is on solid footing having done an IPO in the 90's and they have more that $280M in the bank. The company has a large diverse product offering and the CTO has structured the company into various research teams. One of the research teams I am working with is computational chemistry team involved with DFT and cluster modeling. I am working with this group to recruit to the company a candidate with a strong quantam chemistry background who also has modeling ability. This position could be a Post Doc or a candidate with as manya s 6 eyars industrial experience. I thought that I would send you a note and that maybe a referral might come to mind? Thanks greatly Andrew Audet 760-487-1104 www.seedlabpartners.com <https://www.linkedin.com/redirect?url=www%2Eseedlabpartners%2Ecom&urlhash=W…> Alán Aspuru-Guzik | Professor of Chemistry and Chemical Biology Harvard University | 12 Oxford Street, Room M113 | Cambridge, MA 02138 (617)-384-8188 | http://aspuru.chem.harvard.edu | http://about.me/aspuru

[Aspuru-Guzik group list] see you soon!

by Carlos Amador

Dear Aspurites! I will be going back home to Mexico City tomorrow morning. But, as you know, I´ll be coming back every now and then. So I am sure I´ll see you again. Meanwhile I want to thank you all for your kind hospitality at Alán's group, at CCB and at the Harvard community. I spent a real nice time here, as always. Anyone planning to make a visit to Mexico will be more than welcome in my turf. Just let me know and I will be glad to try to pay back your hospitality. I really admire the achievements of Alán's group, that is, the achievements of all of you. Keep kicking ass, you are really good at that. With respect, Carlos -- __o Carlos Amador Bedolla _ \<,_ amador(a)cbsj.org (_)/ (_) carlos.amador(a)unam.mx
