Welcome to the JFLI, Japanese French Laboratory for Informatics | Quantum Computing Research Team Web page.

Quantum Computing Research Team

Although this topic is beyond the core area of ICT, Quantum Computing is receiving a growing interest in Japan in the recent years, as exemplified by several important government-funded projects. It is a very interesting inter-disciplinary domain where fundamental physics mix with algorithmic studies, thus involving a wide range of disciplines including physics, mathematics and theoretical computer science. This is a new but huge topic that seems worth developing in an international context.

The aim of the French-Japanese collaboration is to investigate the power of Quantum Information and Computation and the feasibility of large-scale Quantum Information Processing. The specific research topics are :

• Quantum Cryptography and Communication:
• cryptographic primitives,
• Zero-Knowledge proofs,
• Quantum Algorithms, e.g. algorithms for graph properties,
• networks and quantum walks,
• Quantum computation and measurement,
• Feasibility of large scale Quantum computation:
• robustness of QIP protocols and performances of fault-tolerance quantum computation.

JFLI Research Teams

• Next Generation Networks: measurement and modeling, mobile networks, ad hoc networks, sensor networks, ambient intelligence & ubiquitous computing,
• Grid and High-Performance Computing: middleware for grids, large-scale grids, programming paradigms for next generation supercomputers, high-performance scientific computing,
• Computer Security: software verification and validation, formal methods, information security,
• Image and Multimedia: Virtual Reality, interaction and interfaces, digital contents, proegrammation paradigms
• Quantum Computing
