A Bari Trying Time
While Bari Weiss faces skepticism inside CBS News, former colleagues describe her management style to Status as chaotic and abrasive—raising questions about how she’ll lead one of America’s most storied newsrooms.

3D-Druck: Start-up erzeugt preiswerte Streichinstrumente mit Studioklangqualität
Streichinstrumente in traditioneller Holzbauweise sind teuer. Es muss doch auch preiswerter bei gleicher Klangqualität gehen. Die Lösung ist 3D-Druck.

Preparation of initial states with open and periodic boundary conditions on quantum devices using matrix product states
We present a framework for preparing quantum states from matrix product states (MPS) with open and periodic boundary conditions on quantum devices. The MPS tensors are mapped to unitary gates, which are subsequently decomposed into native gates on quantum hardware. States with periodic boundary conditions (pbc) can be represented efficiently as quantum circuits using ancilla qubits and post-selection after measurement. We derive an exact expression for the success rate of this probabilistic app…

Recursive algorithm for constructing antisymmetric fermionic states in first quantization mapping
We devise a deterministic quantum algorithm to produce antisymmetric states of single-particle orbitals in the first quantization mapping. Unlike sorting-based antisymmetrization algorithms, which require ordered input states and high Clifford-gate overhead, our approach initializes the state of each particle independently. For a system of $N$ particles and $N_s$ single-particle states, our algorithm prepares antisymmetrized states of non-trivial localized (e.g., Hartree-Fock) orbitals using $O…
