Quantum-inspired portfolio optimization
QAOA-warmed classical solver for 1,400-asset constrained portfolio. Beat the in-house mixed-integer baseline by 2.1% Sharpe at 38% lower solve time. Now in production for one trading desk.
Hybrid PQC migration across 28,000 endpoints
14-month rollout of hybrid x25519 + ML-KEM-768 for TLS, ML-DSA for code-signing. Zero outages, full crypto-bill-of-materials, NIST FIPS 203/204 alignment.
VQE for protein binding-pocket simulation
Hybrid VQE workflow for ground-state energy of three drug-target candidate fragments. Outperformed coupled-cluster baseline on 2 of 3 systems within 4 kcal/mol chemical accuracy.
Vehicle routing with hybrid annealing
Hybrid digital-annealer + classical refinement for 4,800-stop multi-depot VRP. 4.1% cost reduction vs. incumbent solver; deployment in 11 distribution centers.
"Crypto-agility patterns for legacy enterprises"
White paper accepted to Real World Crypto 2026. Documents the migration patterns we developed for enterprises with 10-30 year cryptography rotation cycles.
"Error-mitigation budgets for production VQE"
Preprint, joint with two academic partners. Proposes a budgeting framework for choosing between zero-noise extrapolation, probabilistic error cancellation, and dynamical decoupling.
