In this talk Professor Simon describes the connection between knots of string and certain elementary particles, and how this connection could enable quantum computers - a revolutionary type of computing device. Beginning with the notion of Einsteinian “world-lines“ - the paths traced by particles as they move through space-time - he explains that experiments on elementary particles give information about the knots formed by the particles’ paths. This information is not easily calculated on any conventiona
