Quantum walks are widely and successfully used to model diverse physical processes. This leads to computation of the models, to explore their properties. Quantum walks have also been shown to be universal for quantum computing. This is a more subtle result than is often appreciated, since it applies to computations run on qubit-based quantum computers in the single walker case, and physical quantum walks in the multi-walker case (quantum cellular automata). Nonetheless, quantum walks are powerful tools for quantum computing when correctly applied. In this paper, I explain the relationship between quantum walks as models and quantum walks as computational tools, and give some examples of their application in both contexts.

We describe an algorithm to compute the extremal eigenvalues and corresponding eigenvectors of a symmetric matrix by solving a sequence of Quadratic Binary Optimization problems. This algorithm is robust across many different classes of symmetric mat
rices, can compute the eigenvector/eigenvalue pair to essentially arbitrary precision, and with minor modifications can also solve the generalized eigenvalue problem. Performance is analyzed on small random matrices and selected larger matrices from practical applications.
Synchronization is known to play a vital role within many highly connected neural systems such as the olfactory systems of fish and insects. In this paper we show how one can robustly and effectively perform practical computations using small perturb
ations to a very simple globally coupled network of coupled oscillators. Computations are performed by exploiting the spatio-temporal dynamics of a robust attracting heteroclinic network (also referred to as `winnerless competition dynamics). We use different cluster synchronization states to encode memory states and use this to design a simple multi-base counter. The simulations indicate that this gives a robust computational system exploiting the natural dynamics of the system.
Quantum computation is an emerging technology that promises to be a powerful tool in many areas. Though some years likely still remain until significant quantum advantage is demonstrated, the development of the technology has led to a range of valuab
le resources. These include publicly available prototype quantum hardware, advanced simulators for small quantum programs and programming frameworks to test and develop quantum software. In this provocation paper we seek to demonstrate that these resources are sufficient to provide the first useful results in the field of procedural generation. This is done by introducing a proof-of-principle method: a quantum generalization of a blurring process, in which quantum interference is used to provide a unique effect. Through this we hope to show that further developments in the technology are not required before it becomes useful for procedural generation. Rather, fruitful experimentation with this new technology can begin now.
The synthesis of a quantum circuit consists in decomposing a unitary matrix into a series of elementary operations. In this paper, we propose a circuit synthesis method based on the QR factorization via Householder transformations. We provide a two-s
tep algorithm: during the first step we exploit the specific structure of a quantum operator to compute its QR factorization, then the factorized matrix is used to produce a quantum circuit. We analyze several costs (circuit size and computational time) and compare them to existing techniques from the literature. For a final quantum circuit twice as large as the one obtained by the best existing method, we accelerate the computation by orders of magnitude.
Variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) provide a promising approach to achieve quantum advantage in the noisy intermediate-scale quantum era. In this era, quantum computers experience high error rates and quantum error detection and correction is not
feasible. VQAs can utilize noisy qubits in tandem with classical optimization algorithms to solve hard problems. However, VQAs are still slow relative to their classical counterparts. Hence, improving the performance of VQAs will be necessary to make them competitive. While VQAs are expected perform better as the problem sizes increase, increasing their performance will make them a viable option sooner. In this work we show that circuit-level concurrency provides a means to increase the performance of variational quantum algorithms on noisy quantum computers. This involves mapping multiple instances of the same circuit (program) onto the quantum computer at the same time, which allows multiple samples in a variational quantum algorithm to be gathered in parallel for each training iteration. We demonstrate that this technique provides a linear increase in training speed when increasing the number of concurrently running quantum circuits. Furthermore, even with pessimistic error rates concurrent quantum circuit sampling can speed up the quantum approximate optimization algorithm by up to 20x with low mapping and run time overhead.
