Post-quantum identity-based encryption has been solved from isogeny-based assumptions for the first time, as researchers from ...

Physicists from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) have examined a fundamental property of quantum mechanics in ...

Several fields of mathematics have developed in total isolation, using their own "undecipherable" coded languages. In a new study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Tamás ...

A quantum problem once described as impossible for classical computers has now been solved using relatively modest hardware.

Quantum money underpinned by the mathematics of knots could be impossible to forge. In a quantum monetary system, money is represented as a collection of quantum bits – qubits – on a quantum computer.

The laws of physics that concern heat and work could gain a firmer mathematical footing thanks to “gauge theory”, which already helps us understand quantum fields ...

Dr. Pravir Malik is the founder and chief technologist of QIQuantum and the Forbes Technology Council group leader for Quantum Computing. The promise of quantum technology and computing lies in its ...

While quantum computing has vast potential, it could also threaten cybersecurity. “Current encryption methods are less secure in the face of the superior computation power of quantum computing” says ...

Quantum mechanics has long relied on complex numbers to describe the strange behavior of particles, from tunneling to entanglement. A new analysis suggests that this mathematical language may not be ...
