How quantum and classical computers work together
Predicted for the first time more than 40 years ago, quantum computers are supposed to solve problems which are intractable to their classical counterparts. Recently, quantum computers have become a reality, allowing to perform smaller calculations, and showing a rapid growth potential by further improving hardware capabilities. In this talk I will reflect on quantum algorithms and how quantum and classical computers team up to solve most complex tasks of today in chemistry, optimization, and physics, just to name a few.
