Funded Activity Summary

Symmetry and topology for quantum information. This project aims to develop improved, less resource-intensive methods to store and process information in quantum computers. Quantum computers large enough to solve practical problems are hugely expensive. This project will use the scientific understanding of quantum many-body systems to protect information from noise with low overhead. More efficient fault-tolerant protocols are expected to benefit experimental quantum computing research, simplifying the task of building practical, commercially relevant quantum computers in the medium term. This may also lead to the development of a new-high tech industry in quantum technology.
