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.

Relative quantum information theory. Quantum information encoded in relative degrees of freedom of multiple quantum systems offers striking advantages in communication and cryptography: it is immune to common types of noise and does not require reference systems shared between parties. This project aims to formulate a theory of relative quantum information, to develop practical information processing protocols that take advantage of relative encodings, and to propose proof-of-principle experim ....Relative quantum information theory. Quantum information encoded in relative degrees of freedom of multiple quantum systems offers striking advantages in communication and cryptography: it is immune to common types of noise and does not require reference systems shared between parties. This project aims to formulate a theory of relative quantum information, to develop practical information processing protocols that take advantage of relative encodings, and to propose proof-of-principle experiments in quantum optics that reveal these advantages. Expected outcomes include powerful communication and cryptographic protocols, a design for programmable quantum computation, and a fundamentally relative theory of quantum information connecting with other foundational fields of physics.Read moreRead less
Algebraic Structures in Mathematical Physics and Their Applications. Algebraic structures such as affine (super)algebras, quantised algebras and vertex operator algebras are among the most important discoveries in mathematics. They provide a universal common algebraic framework underlying applications in a wide range of physics (eg. statistical mechanics, string theory, condensed matter physics etc.) leading to a high level of research activity worldwide. The project harnessess the high level ....Algebraic Structures in Mathematical Physics and Their Applications. Algebraic structures such as affine (super)algebras, quantised algebras and vertex operator algebras are among the most important discoveries in mathematics. They provide a universal common algebraic framework underlying applications in a wide range of physics (eg. statistical mechanics, string theory, condensed matter physics etc.) leading to a high level of research activity worldwide. The project harnessess the high level of expertise in mathematical physics across Australia to focus on exciting new developments in the theory of these algebraic structures and their application to physics, thus ensuring Australia plays a leading role in this rapidly expanding field.Read moreRead less
Algebraic approach to exactly soluble models for disordered systems. In nanoscience there are a diverse range of systems in which disorder, randomness, or noise can play a significant role. Examples range from quantum wires to qubits to unzipping DNA.
Even the simplest mathematical models for systems in the presence of disorder have a rich mathematical structure because they can be formulated in terms of Lie algrebras or diffusion on a curved surface.
The complementary physical and mathem ....Algebraic approach to exactly soluble models for disordered systems. In nanoscience there are a diverse range of systems in which disorder, randomness, or noise can play a significant role. Examples range from quantum wires to qubits to unzipping DNA.
Even the simplest mathematical models for systems in the presence of disorder have a rich mathematical structure because they can be formulated in terms of Lie algrebras or diffusion on a curved surface.
The complementary physical and mathematical expertise of the two Chief Investigators is crucial to this project.Read moreRead less
