Does quantum computing have an essential advantage in analyzing/controlling chaotic systems?
The enthusiast-level, inaccurate knowledge about quantum computers is that they can solve many exponentially solvable problems in polynomial time.
The enthusiast-level, inaccurate knowledge about chaotic systems is that being highly sensitive to…

Applications of quantum computing for science popularization
I need to do some popularization of science for an event, and I would like to talk about the "best" applications of quantum computing.
I know there is code-breaking (Shor algorithm), simulation of quantum systems, deep learning, etc.
However, I…

What are some examples of applications of quantum information to other sciences?
I find looking at physical processes through the lens of quantum information science rather interesting. I know of a few applications of it:
quantum computation;
solid state (tensor network approach);
cosmology (information exchange with black…

Can we hope in the near future to have web apps running quantum algorithms in real-time?
Suppose in "near future" that we have quantum computers with thousands of qubits that can run Grover, HHL, and so on. Then, can we hope in the "near future" to have some web application that will run quantum algorithms in real-time?
For example,…

Is quantum computing apropriate for video encoding?
Hello and sorry if the question is too layman's here. I haven't found an answer when googling.
I am a programmer with some video encoding background, so I know how much energy is "wasted" on encoding. Especially with the 2020's situation when a lot…

Will there be quantum to digital converters in the same way we need digital to analog converters to communicate between the 2 mediums?
I know this forum is for more technical questions...
As my interest is in music, I was thinking about the nature of analog and digital mediums. And I just thought, for some reason, we have 'Quantum Home Computers', (which I don't know if happens)…

Applications of quantum computers after they become cheap enough and reliable enough as a binary computer
Let's say in the near future Quantum Computers are as cheap as a high-end gaming PC or maybe Quantum Computing module that can work reliably when plugged into a PCI slot at a price similar to a high-end GPU is relased.
In this case what would be the…
