_A quantum simulation of heterogeneous matter, designed by Algorithmiq and executed
on IBM quantum computers, continues to compete with the world’s leading classical
simulation methods eight months after its debut on the Quantum Advantage Tracker._

_The work addresses one of quantum computing’s central challenges: how to trust 
a result when no classical computer can verify it._

_Algorithmiq is also releasing a new benchmark for quantum advantage claims, making
its best classical method for simulating molecular ground states available to the
research community._

YORKTOWN HEIGHTS, N.Y. and MILAN, July 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Algorithmiq
and IBM (NYSE: [IBM](http://www.ibm.com/investor%20)) announced a major milestone
in the development of quantum computing: a joint [demonstration](https://arxiv.org/abs/2607.25998)
of quantum advantage with the simulation of a heterogeneous quantum material, achieved
with a new framework that establishes trust in quantum computations when classical
verification is unavailable.

Eight months after this problem and results were first released through the launch
of the [Quantum Advantage Tracker](https://github.com/quantum-advantage-tracker/quantum-advantage-tracker.github.io/issues/203),
no classical method has been able to reliably produce results across the full problem
regime studied in this work. It demonstrates that quantum computers can provide 
trusted solutions more efficiently, more cheaply, or more accurately than leading
classical compute methods — which has long been considered a key milestone in the
field.

**Studying Information Flow in Heterogenous Quantum Matter**

Real materials, including catalysts and battery electrolytes, are defined not by
perfect crystalline order but by irregular structures, interfaces, and local variations
that strongly influence how information, energy, and particles move through the 
system. To study these effects, a team led by senior scientist Sergey Filippov in
Algorithmiq’s R&D division, which is headed by co-founder & Chief Scientific Officer
Guillermo García-Pérez, developed a model of heterogeneous quantum matter in which
information propagates through regions with different local properties. The resulting
dynamics were deliberately positioned in a regime that is experimentally accessible
on today’s quantum hardware but demanding for leading classical simulation techniques.

The model, when executed on an IBM Quantum Heron processor, effectively captured
a programmable quantum material whose microscopic couplings could be tuned and reconfigured
at will, so that researchers can control where information flows, localizes, or 
interferes, as it would in a real material.

**Solving Quantum Computing’s Trust Problem**

Quantum results have traditionally earned trust the same way: by checking them against
a classical simulation. To do so, Algorithmiq’s software engineering team collaborated
with world-leading classical simulation researchers to explore different simulation
approaches. The various classical methods produced conflicting predictions among
themselves for the same quantities. In the absence of an exact solution, the challenge
was not only to outperform classical computation, but also to determine which result
could be trusted.

To address this challenge, the team developed a new framework for trusted quantum
computation in the beyond-classical era, laying down a blueprint for scientific 
discovery. A central part of this strategy was noise manipulation and building a
representative model of the underlying noise in the device. Researchers deliberately
changed the noise affecting the quantum circuits, including through controlled noise
injection, modified gate calibrations, and execution on multiple IBM Quantum processors.
This showed that the quantum results remained stable — providing evidence that the
quantum computers were producing consistent solutions. With extensively tested noise
models, they also demonstrated a path to stand-alone validation using unbiased error
mitigation techniques with quantified uncertainty.

**Open Sourcing the Benchmark**

Algorithmiq is also today releasing [monoprop](https://github.com/algorithmiq/monoprop),
which makes its best classical method for simulating molecular ground states available
to the wider research community — the same techniques it has used to test and challenge
quantum advantage claims, including its own. The package is designed to let any 
research group, quantum or classical, stress-test future advantage claims rather
than take them on faith.

**Supporting Commentary**

**Sabrina Maniscalco, co-founder and CEO, Algorithmiq: **"For an exponential technology
like quantum computing, a verified, openly contested instance of advantage is the
inflection point: proof the curve is real, not projected. Demonstrating quantum 
advantage is an ongoing process, not a single moment, but we believe these results
represent our strongest claim published to date and will come to be seen as a major
milestone in the evolution of quantum computing."

**Matteo Rossi, co-founder and CTO, Algorithmiq:** "This collaboration with IBM 
has realized an idea first proposed by Richard Feynman in 1982. By simulating quantum
matter using a digital quantum processor built from the same physics, we’re able
to give researchers a tunable, physically interesting model open to anyone who wants
to try to disprove it classically. It is a demanding test case, and it has withstood
open challenge for eight months and counting."

**Jay Gambetta, Director of IBM Research and IBM Fellow: **"Quantum computers have
reached the point at which they can show evidence of the fundamental criteria for
advantage: they can outperform leading classical methods, and they can simultaneously
produce results that we can trust. I look forward to continued benchmarking of these
results by the community on the Quantum Advantage Tracker, and progress towards 
rigorous error bars for quantum methods. This is a pivotal milestone in the future
of quantum computers as we look towards scaling well beyond what could ever be possible
with classical computers alone — and further explore new realms of physics, materials,
life sciences, and much more."

**More Demonstrations of Quantum Advantage Emerge**

Today, alongside this milestone from IBM and Algorithmiq, partners from across IBM’s
ecosystem are announcing more demonstrations of quantum advantage with trusted computations.
