The application of quantum mechanics to the creation of quantum technology promises to be one of the most exciting technological developments of this century. Possible applications of quantum technologies include vastly improved sensors to search for minerals or gravity waves, secure quantum cryptography, and quantum computing. Quantum feedback control is a key tool in quantum technology. This project will lay the foundations of systematic theories of robust, coherent and nonlinear quantum feedback control and lead to advances in the control of highly resonant systems which underlie experimental quantum and nano technology. This will enable Australia to reap great benefits as this new technological area emerges.Read moreRead less
Singular phenomena for nonlinear partial differential equations arising in applications. The development of nonlinear Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) in Australia is recognized worldwide through the outstanding contributions of mathematicians from the ANU, University of Sydney and other top Australian Universities. This project undertakes research in the PDEs field and follows directions of very current interest at an international level. Beyond the ANU, the project will enhance expertise ....Singular phenomena for nonlinear partial differential equations arising in applications. The development of nonlinear Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) in Australia is recognized worldwide through the outstanding contributions of mathematicians from the ANU, University of Sydney and other top Australian Universities. This project undertakes research in the PDEs field and follows directions of very current interest at an international level. Beyond the ANU, the project will enhance expertise in Australia in very active areas of mathematics research related to applications in physics, biology and other applied disciplines. Moreover, it will foster collaboration with mathematicians of international standing from Australia and abroad. Read moreRead less
