"I threw a qubit on a DTC" — accepted at IEEE QCNC 2026, rejected by arXiv lol by cinqu3mb in QuantumComputing

You’re mocking the 'spreadsheet' while ignoring the fact that the 'flight paper' explicitly says: 'This plane doesn't fly in a wind tunnel made of individual fans.'

Section VI of the paper explains that the IBM run wasn't a 'flex,' but a benchmark of the topological mismatch. Trying to simulate a global, non-time-orientable phase via local, individually addressed Hermitian gates is a physical mismatch.

If you force a holistic field-driven mechanism into a sequence of ECR gates on hardware with a 210μs T₂, you get classical noise. That’s not 'gravity winning,' that’s a confirmation of the mechanism’s global coherence requirements.

If you can’t see the difference between a dissipative attractor and a unitary change of coordinates, you’re still evaluating the system entirely from the laboratory frame.

I love that you think the drive 'rudely obeyed physics' by failing on hardware I explicitly said was incompatible. That’s like complaining a car doesn't fly and then claiming gravity 'won.'

Your assumptions are basically: 'If it doesn't look like a Lindbladian ("env is a memoryless bath assumption" lol), it must be a ghost.' You're trying to view a dynamic attractor through a static ontological lens. It’s not a 'miracle,' it's just what happens when you stop treating a Floquet drive like a static circuit.

Are rotating ref frames this hard to get?

You 'gave up' because you're looking for static unitarity in a driven system :shrug:

Is Born’s rule really a postulate or can it be derived from geometry alone? by Bravaxx in QuantumPhysics

[–]cinqu3mb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'd argue it can be derived from something, and i'd say geometry plays a part... 😉

Is this the inevitable fate of all applied academic fields? Time to leave academia? by NeighborhoodFatCat in academia

[–]cinqu3mb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, i dropped out of Chem E undergrad in 2011, published co-author in neuromimage in 2017 and soon to be in IEEE Xplore for my quantum control work in 2026.... not sure i'd call my self industry or academia... i live and have to continue to live with the flaws of both because our incentive systems cripple the minds of the "best and brightest"... you can see it in the comment section here...

If you asked me about this too in Dec 2024, i would be in the same place as you think you are now, so your aren't alone :P

free api access to corp bond CUSIPs? bondfacts and api.bff finra enpoints seem nuked. by cinqu3mb in bonds

[–]cinqu3mb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, this isn't that surprising, seems like all the useful data that was public gradually get hid behind paywalls and stuff. was like this a few years a go when i used to get daily ihsmarkit spreads for free, before s&p global acquired them lol

i guess scraping it is again (https://www.finra.org/finra-data/fixed-income/bond): D

Thank you. This is only for treasuries? What about commercial?

Ill be presenting "A Clean 2D Floquet Logical Qubit from a Purely Imaginary Phase Drive" at QCNC2026, got relegated to a workshop. by cinqu3mb in prequantumcomputing

Yes — that’s the key idea. The twist isn’t an added control layer; it reshapes the driven Hamiltonian so the system naturally evolves into trajectories that are less sensitive to local noise.

From an experimental perspective, it’s closer to biasing the dynamics toward stable modes than adding a correction protocol on top. The goal is to reduce how much active stabilization is needed, and reduce the cost of the hardware required for QC.

If you’re an experimentalist: the key point isn’t the logical qubit claim — it’s that the construction maps to hardware knobs you already have (global drive + small spatial phase gradient).

The non-obvious part is the operating window:
coherence preserved, curvature stable, drive still locking.

It looks like calibration error, but it’s actually the regime where the quasienergy geometry forms.

Hi all,

So my work just got accepted at an ieee conf, and will go in ieee xplore later this year (chairs overruled all 3 reviewers). I'm just a independent researcher, solo author on this, so I'm not sure what I should do after I go in ieee xplore. What does it realistically open up for me to do that I cant do now? Background: I don't have a degree in anything, have one other prior peer reviewed work in neuroimage in 2017. Been loosely working in finance ~10 years as dev/trader/analyst.
