IBM and partners published preprints showing quantum circuits on Heron R3 processors that exceed the classical methods they tested while adding new ways to assess correctness. The work focuses on trust and verification, including postselection, error mitigation, and fidelity bounds, as quantum systems move beyond easy classical simulation.
