Simulations of polymers? A quantum puzzle (IMAGE) Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati Caption The study provides a first example of how quantum computing can be used for studying key polymer models. In perspective, because our approach is general, it ought to provide a basis for tackling more complex and ambitious systems, such as long biopolymers in confined spaces, which are also key to understanding genome organization.
