Some initial thoughts, and a complicated mix of feelings. Wow. I mean, Erdos problems are cool (I genuinely mean that), I didn't know about the Jacobian conjecture before it got disproved. But this newest batch from OpenAI hits home in a way the previous announcements did not.

@dulwichquantum.bsky.social Me when I read "the authors take full responsibility for the content" in a paper's acknowledgments.

I tend to agree with Tobias. It will be interesting to see near-term changes in the valuation of certain aspects of research. An important problem I see is who can afford access to frontier models and how the scientific community should address this. tjoresearchnotes.wordpress.com/2026/07/28/p...

Big news: I'll be moving to APCTP in Pohang, South Korea, starting a new group in October! I'll be hiring two postdocs on a range of topics from high-energy to quantum information theory, collaborating across the Asia-Pacific region and beyond. Deadline Aug 12. More: www.apctp.org/bbs/board.ph...

It's not necessarily the end of mathematics, but it's hard to see how the all the social structures that support the subject will be able to avoid major disruption over the next few years.

We are now at an exciting point in our process of developing quantum computers and understanding their computational power: It has been demonstrated that quantum computers can outperform classical …

Last year, I became interested in the question what happens if we impose computational efficiency onto information theory. In our latest paper, we analyze how this changes the amount of information that can be transmitted over a channel -- spoiler alert: a lot! scirate.com/arxiv/2601.1...

The computational two-way quantum capacity

Quantum channel capacities are fundamental to quantum information theory. Their definition, however, does not limit the computational resources of sender and receiver. In this work, we initiate the st...

The largest fundamental science agency in Europe will save €1.4 million annually by breaking free from Clavariate Analytics' huge databases of references and citations. "We have worked for free to lock ourselves collectively into a paid system", one head of the CNRS explains - but no more! 🎉

From January 1st 2026, the CNRS will cut access to one of the largest commercial bibliometric databases, Clarivate Analytics' Web of Science, along with the Core Collection and Journal Citation Reports.
