van Loo, N. (author)The development of quantum computers is perhaps one of the most exciting innovations of our time. The most investigated quantum computers, however, suffer from the fact that quantum information is lost due to interaction between the quantum bits and their environment. As a radically different approach, it has been proposed that one can instead...doctoral thesis 2023

Ledoux, Rik (author)In this thesis, we derive a multivariate analogue of Ruijsenaars’s 2F1-generalisation R. We use Hopf algebra representation theory of the modular double of sl.2/, a Hopf algebra structure strongly related to quantum groups, to relate the function R to overlap coefficients of eigenfunctions. Using properties of the algebra and the representation,...master thesis 2023

Speksnijder, Robert (author)Quantum random walks are the quantum analogs of classical random walks and appear to be promising tools to design fast quantum algorithms. Therefore it is important to study their time-related features and see how these differ compared to the classical case. For the discrete-time quantum walk on the line it has been shown that the probability to...bachelor thesis 2023

Dekeling, Casper (author)In the development of any new technology, it is essential to have methods to assess the quality of a system, to compare different systems to one another, and to compare different versions of the same system, to see if changes to the system can actually be classified as improvements. For quantum networks, this is no different. To further develop...bachelor thesis 2023

Jirovská, Hana (author)The goal of quantum application scheduling is to enable the execution of applications on a quantum network. As the final step in the application scheduling process, program scheduling locally schedules execution of blocks of instructions on each node by defining so-called node schedules. In this thesis, we present a formal definition of program...master thesis 2023
