The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Global Behaviour of Integrable Complex Systems. Complex systems as diverse as the weather and the solar system are modelled by non-linear equations that have elusive, unstable solutions. An infinitesimally small change in the state of the system at one place can lead to a vast change in its behaviour far away. Such extreme sensitivity is often take to be a sign of chaos, but it also occurs in completely ordered, integrable systems. Our main aim is to tackle the immense challenge of describing th ....Global Behaviour of Integrable Complex Systems.

An infinitesimally small change in the state of the system at one place can lead to a vast change in its behaviour far away. Such extreme sensitivity is often take to be a sign of chaos, but it also occurs in completely ordered, integrable systems. Our main aim is to tackle the immense challenge of describing the global behaviour of such elusive solutions, particularly when the systems depend on many variables.Read moreRead less
Iwasawa N Groups. Semisimple Lie groups and related objects are important in mathematics, theoretical physics (e.g., quantum mechanics and string theory), theoretical computer science (e.g., construction of expanders), and many other areas. They may be studied from different points of view---algebraic, analytic, geometric and representation theoretic---and these different studies find different applications.

Semisimple Lie groups and related objects are important in mathematics, theoretical physics (e.g., quantum mechanics and string theory), theoretical computer science (e.g., construction of expanders), and many other areas. They may be studied from different points of view---algebraic, analytic, geometric and representation theoretic---and these different studies find different applications. The project aims to synthesize the different points of view, to understand their fundamental unity, and to allow results of one type to be translated into another context.Read moreRead less
Equivalence Relations, Group Actions, and Descriptive Set Theory. This project is a contribution to basic and foundational research in the area of Pure Mathematics generally and Mathematical Logic specifically. Logic in particular appears in disciplines as diverse as Computer Science,Linguistics, and Philosophy, and the development of logic in these fields has been profoundly influenced by the foundational work of mathematical logicians.

This project is a contribution to basic and foundational research in the area of Pure Mathematics generally and Mathematical Logic specifically. Logic in particular appears in disciplines as diverse as Computer Science,Linguistics, and Philosophy, and the development of logic in these fields has been profoundly influenced by the foundational work of mathematical logicians. The innovative techniques introduced in this proposal will enable Australia to maintain a position at the forefront of Pure Mathematics, and by recruiting a recent winner of the highly prestigious Karp prize the country will be instantly established as one of the leading centers of Mathematical Logic.Read moreRead less

The *Magic* network will promote the use of mathematics by government, industry and community to analyse real problems and implement practical solutions. It will connect the most promising young Australian mathematicians to experienced researchers with strong research teams linked directly to the broader community. Our program will demand research excellence, emphasise a sustainable society, support outstanding young mathematicians and create opportunities for promising postgraduate students. We will offer scholarships for professional development and fund research visits and exchanges. *Magic* will provide tangible incentives for young Australian mathematicians and a new generation of researchers and research leaders.Read moreRead less
How do macroeconomic fluctuations affect the educational choices of young Australians? The 1990-1991 recession, recent evidence, and econometric issues. The educational choices of young people are crucial for any nation's future. The project's empirical findings will inform public policy, particularly in the areas of education and training and youth unemployment. The research will help policy makers target people who need extra support in tough times and help determine the demand for different k ....How do macroeconomic fluctuations affect the educational choices of young Australians? The 1990-1991 recession, recent evidence, and econometric issues. The educational choices of young people are crucial for any nation's future. The project's empirical findings will inform public policy, particularly in the areas of education and training and youth unemployment. The research will help policy makers target people who need extra support in tough times and help determine the demand for different kinds of education. The findings have implications for future policies aimed at reducing inequality. The project's methodological contributions will lead to better and more reliable research in economics and other fields such as biology and engineering. The findings will be suitable for the top economics journals and contribute to Australia's standing in the academic community.Read moreRead less
Entanglement renormalization: a new route to strongly correlated fermions and novel states of matter in two dimensions. The expected outcome of the research program is a significant boost in our understanding of strongly correlated fermion systems, which will reinforce Australia's competitiveness and international profile in aspects of breakthrough science and frontier technologies.

The expected outcome of the research program is a significant boost in our understanding of strongly correlated fermion systems, which will reinforce Australia's competitiveness and international profile in aspects of breakthrough science and frontier technologies. By strengthening both the underpinning theory and innovative computational tools to study fermion systems, and by applying them to specific problems of recognized importance, this program will have direct implications in condensed matter physics and will exert significant influence in areas such as quantum chemistry, particle, nuclear and atomic physics, quantum computing, quantum atom optics and nanotechnology.Read moreRead less

The ability to analyse the performance of complex systems and protocols is a vital part of the development of large-scale computer applications. Methods that improve the effectiveness of the analysis task would increase the competitiveness of the software industry, and would attract future development work (in complex systems) to Australia. The results of this project will have a direct influence on currently available design tools; the fact that Australian institutions will be (in part) responsible for key theoretical results in this growing field will strengthen Australia's position worldwide as an international centre for computer science.Read moreRead less
