Funded Activity Summary

Quantum decoherence: A game-theoretic perspective. Algorithms based on quantum computation have the ability to significantly speed up information processing compared to standard computers. The increase in computational power can have enormous impact on humankind and this project will help maintain Australia's position in the global forefront of this effort.This project focuses on the thoeretical foundations of quantum computation and complements the efforts of several groups in Australia collaborating on the experimental design of quantum computers. The project will increase the fundamental understanding of how quantum information is processed in the presence of noise, which is necessary for the successful operation of quantum computers.
