Abstract

Recent advancements in quantum information science are poised to unleash new sensing, communication, control, and computing (SC3) capabilities. Synergies in SC3 promise the development of next-generation networks with unprecedented performance. For instance, (i) control of statistical information facilitates practical quantum inference, (ii) communication exploiting quantum phenomena empowers concealed telecomputation, and (iii) variational computing and distributed metrology enable networked quantum sensing. Quantum Nexus unifies SC3 and provides key insights into the systematic design of quantum information technologies. Quantum Nexus has led to new theories and methodologies in, among others, quantum localization, quantum direct communication, remote entanglement establishment, optimal quantum control, and distributed quantum computation. This talk will introduce Quantum Nexus for SC3 and highlight key areas of research.
