Characterizing barren plateaus in quantum ansätze with the adjoint representation

Previous studies have highlighted the role of quantum circuit symmetries in ameliorating the barren plateau problem, but rigorous analytical results on this topic are scarce. Here, by looking at Lie algebra supported ansätze, the authors find an expression for the variance of the cost function gradient as a function of the dimension of the dynamical Lie algebra.

Short- and long-read metagenomics of urban and rural South African gut microbiomes reveal a transitional composition and undescribed taxa

In this study, Wits and Stanford researchers use short- and long-read DNA sequencing to profile the gut microbiome of women living in rural and urban South Africa and identify transitional composition, high inter-individual diversity, and many undescribed taxa.

The genetic architecture of type 2 diabetes

Sequencing data from two large-scale studies show that most of the genetic variation influencing the risk of type 2 diabetes involves common alleles and is found in regions previously identified by genome-wide association studies, clarifying the genetic architecture of this disease.

Constrained optimization via quantum Zeno dynamics

The paper presents an approach for solving optimization problems with multiple arbitrary constraints on quantum computers by combining quantum Zeno dynamics with common quantum optimization algorithms like QAOA. The number of Zeno measurements required is shown to be independent of the problem size in QAOA.

International consensus on initial screening and follow-up of asymptomatic SDHx mutation carriers

This Consensus Statement discusses the management of asymptomatic individuals with a germline mutation in one of the succinate dehydrogenase (SDHx) genes (SDHA, SDHB, SDHC and SDHD), which encode the four subunits of the SDH enzyme. These individuals are at increased risk of phaeochromocytoma and/or paraganglioma.
