TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method to construct entangler pools with reduced size by leveraging classical algorithms, using mutual information between the qubits in classically approximated ground state to rank and screen the entanglers.

The Cyclopropane Ring as a Reporter of Radical Leaving-Group Reactivity for Ni-Catalyzed C(sp3)-O Arylation.
L. Reginald Mills,John J. Monteith,Gabriel dos Passos Gomes,Alán Aspuru-Guzik,Sophie A. L. Rousseaux +4 more
TL;DR: A unique strategy employing activated cyclopropanols to aid the design and optimization of a redox-active leaving group for C(sp3)-O arylation is developed, which is consistent with a Ni(I)/Ni(III) catalytic cycle.
Layer-by-Layer Assembled Films of Perylene Diimide- and Squaraine-Containing Metal–Organic Framework-like Materials: Solar Energy Capture and Directional Energy Transfer
Hea Jung Park,Hea Jung Park,Monica C. So,Monica C. So,David J. Gosztola,Gary P. Wiederrecht,Jonathan D. Emery,Alex B. F. Martinson,Süleyman Er,Christopher E. Wilmer,Christopher E. Wilmer,Nicolaas A. Vermeulen,Alán Aspuru-Guzik,J. Fraser Stoddart,Omar K. Farha,Omar K. Farha,Joseph T. Hupp +16 more
TL;DR: Directional long-range energy transfer from the bluest to reddest absorber was successfully demonstrated in the multicomponent MOF-like films, which have significant implications for the development of solar energy conversion devices based on MOFs.

Preparation of many-body states for quantum simulation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a method for generating physically relevant quantum states on a lattice in real space, which relies on a procedure for converting from a second-quantized state to its firstquantized counterpart, and it operates in time that is polynomial in all the essential descriptors of the system, such the number of particles, the resolution of the lattice, and the inverse of the maximum final error.
Analytical nuclear gradients for the range-separated many-body dispersion model of noncovalent interactions
Martin A. Blood-Forsythe,Thomas Markovich,Robert A. DiStasio,Robert A. DiStasio,Roberto Car,Alán Aspuru-Guzik +5 more
TL;DR: This work develops analytical forces for the many-body dispersion model of collective van der Waals interactions with real-time consequences for fluid dynamics.
