Technical Perspective: A Symbolic Approach to Verifying Quantum Systems
The combination of deep theoretical insights and practical tool development results in a milestone for quantum circuit verification.
-
An Automata-Based Framework for Verification and Bug Hunting in Quantum Circuits
The framework leverages tree automata to compactly represent sets of quantum states; transformers implement the semantics of quantum gates over this representation.

Technical Perspective: When Proofs Meet Programs: An Extension of Dependent Type Theory with Church’s Thesis
The accompanying paper asks whether we can internalize in logic the property known as “Church’s Thesis.”

‘Upon This Quote I Will Build My Church Thesis’
The compatibility of the Church thesis with dependent type theory was an open question. In this paper, we answer this question positively.

Accept the Consequences
Formal computer science may never model practical computer engineering well enough to be predictive in the way the physical sciences are.
