PRESS RELEASE WISER and Classiq Turn Quantum Theory into Working Reality Washington, DC | May 12, 2026 The Washington Institute for STEM, Entrepreneurship and Research (WISER) announces the successful completion of a research collaboration with Classiq, on the Quantum Simulation of Coupled Harmonic Oscillators. The joint paper, published on arXiv, has been recognized by PennyLane as one of the Top 5 Quantum Algorithms Papers for Winter 2026 – described by PennyLane's editorial team Juan...

If you spend any time around quantum computing, you’ve heard the same question on repeat: Cool theory… but does it actually work in practice? That’s why we were excited (and honestly proud) to see one of our recent research preprints recognized in PennyLane’s roundup of the Top quantum algorithms papers (Winter 2026). The list highlights work that’s pushing the field forward, and our paper was called out as a rare example of an algorithm paper that doesn’t stop at elegance. It wrestles with...
