Democratic Ownership and Creator Sovereignty in Independent Film Streaming

This project investigates how cooperative governance frameworks can be applied to the design of creator-sovereign streaming platforms for independent film. It addresses two questions: how do existing cooperative and platform cooperative models handle the governance challenges of creative labour, including revenue distribution and data rights? And what design principles can be developed from the Centre […]

Measurement-Reduction Strategies for the 2D-pUCC Ansatz-Based Variational Quantum Eigensolver

During his doctoral work, Louis Jourdan developed the 2D-pUCC (2D-block pair unitary coupled-cluster) ansatz, a novel quantum algorithmic framework that adapts and generalizes the classical Antisymmetric Product of 2D-block Geminals (AP2D-BG) method for quantum computing architectures. The overarching objective of the project is to reduce the measurement cost in variational quantum algorithms for molecular electronic-structure […]
