Had a chat with these awesome guys the other day about Chen's LWE algorithm. (Fun fact, the news about the bug in step 9 dropped only 15 minutes before the interview!) #eprint555

Thomas Vidick wrote more thought about the bug in #eprint555 on the Discord (like Yilei, he does not appear to use Twitter).

it's so over

Dear University staff, reducing departmental costs and saving you time is important to us. That's why we insist you use a travel booking system that overcharges us and operates less effectively for you than a basic google search.

We are very excited to announce that we will be organizing IACR PKC 2025 in Røros, Norway! 🎉 The general chairs will be Tjerand Silde and Bor de Kock, and the program chairs will be Jiaxin Pan and Tibor Jager @[email protected] 😎 visitnorway.com/places-to-go/t…

❓How to learn/train quantum circuits?

Shallow quantum circuits are classically hard to simulate⚡️Despite extensive study, no efficient algorithm for learning/training them is known💀

In arxiv.org/abs/2401.10095, we show how to learn any shallow quantum circuit efficiently💡
