About the CEMRACS

CEMRACS is a 6-week international summer school organized almost every summer since 1996 at CIRM (Centre International de Rencontres Mathématiques) on the Luminy campus near Marseille famous calanques. In 2025, the event will be dedicated to Quantum Computing with a special emphasis on two scientific domains deeply impacted by quantum computers with important social repercussions : scientific computing and cryptography.

About Quantum Computing

CEMRACS 2025 is dedicated to quantum computing, focusing on training students in the quantum computer framework and its associated algorithms, such as those for number search, prime factorization, phase estimation, and solving linear systems. The summer school also addresses the topic of quantum error correction. Two main application areas with common algorithmic tools are highlighted:

• Explore the potential of quantum computing in scientific computations, including the adaptation and performance gains of existing algorithms in a quantum framework.
• Quantum cryptography: given the effectiveness of quantum algorithms in cryptography, this area focuses on the need to develop new encryption methods for the post-quantum era.

Program

The principle of this event, organized by SMAI (Société de Mathématiques Appliquées et Industrielles) relies on strong industrial partnerships and has a two-period structure: the first phase consists of one week of lectures (July 15 to 19), and the second of a five-week period of project-based research. During the second phase, each participant works in a team on a collaborative research project proposed either by an industrial company or an academic team. Teams are made up of 2 or 3 young researchers, supervized by one or two experienced researchers provided by the company or academic team which proposed the project. The program includes:

• 1 week Summer school (July 15-19)
• 5 weeks of a research session on projects proposed by academic scientists and/or industrial partners (July 21 - August 22)
