What you will do…
Solving partial differential equations (DEs) efficiently is one the most challenging quests for science. Nowadays, their numerical resolution is mainly based on Finite-Difference Methods, a class of techniques relying on domain discretization. Even if using a finer grid always leads to a more accurate solution, the obvious drawback is a bad scaling with the number of points. DEs are ubiquitous in science since they can powerfully model several real-life phenomena and this is why they gained so much attention also in the context of quantum computing, becoming one of the most explored subjects in the past few years.
Among the several phenomena modeled by DEs, one outstanding for its complexity and wide range of applications is combustion. Its simulations are highly challenging, due to their strong interdisciplinary nature which involves nonlinear physical and chemical phenomena. The internship would focus on the development and improvement of variational quantum algorithms for differential equations and related techniques (handling of boundary conditions, initialization strategies etc.) with the final goal of solving a 1D Flame model using photonic quantum computing. We are looking for a new intern ideally to start between July and September.
