en.Wedoany.com Reported - Israeli ion trap quantum computing company Quantum Art officially announced on May 5, 2026, that in collaboration with an Israeli government R&D agency, it has successfully completed a quantum algorithm project for electromagnetic wave propagation simulation. The algorithm is capable of simulating the behavior of electromagnetic waves across volumes spanning tens of cubic kilometers at centimeter-level resolution, requiring approximately 10¹⁸ sampling points—a task where traditional supercomputers struggle to balance precision, coverage, and energy consumption.
The core of the project lies in transforming the problem of solving partial differential equations into a form that quantum computing can process efficiently. Partial differential equations form the foundation of models in numerous scientific and engineering fields, including communications, aerospace, automotive, finance, and defense. By leveraging Quantum Art's unique ion trap architecture and multi-qubit gate capabilities, the research team compressed complex PDE operations into fewer computational steps, significantly reducing quantum circuit depth and enabling the algorithm to represent a grid containing approximately 10¹⁸ sampling points in a system with only about 60 qubits. Benchmark results show that this approach achieves over 100x performance improvement compared to leading superconducting quantum computing platforms, and over 10x improvement compared to another ion trap solution.
Professor Roee Ozeri, Chief Scientific Officer of Quantum Art, stated that when attempting to model complex wave behavior at such scale and centimeter-level resolution, classical systems force trade-offs between precision or coverage, whereas the quantum algorithm developed by the team can maintain high precision at scales previously considered impractical—an advantage expected to expand further with continued advances in quantum hardware.
The project's outcomes can be directly applied to high-precision wireless coverage planning and reliability improvements for mission-critical communication systems. Founded in 2022 by Dr. Tal David, Dr. Amit Ben Kish, and Professor Roee Ozeri, Quantum Art is an Israeli quantum computing enterprise spun out of the Weizmann Institute of Science, focused on the R&D of full-stack ion trap quantum computing systems. The company adopts a multi-core ion trap architecture design and recently expanded its Series A funding round from $100 million to $140 million to accelerate the development and commercial deployment of its 1,000-qubit multi-core system named Perspective.
