Bulk-boundary correspondence in quantum many-body systems. This project will develop theoretical and numerical methods to explore how the bulk properties of quantum materials at low temperature are manifested on the edge of the material. Characterising this bulk-boundary correspondence will uncover new regimes of physics and underpin the development of powerful quantum technologies in the laboratory.

This project will use the powerful techniques and methods of machine learning to identify, characterise, and correct noise sources in the next generation of quantum information processors. These innovative techniques will allow the reliability of quantum computer components to be tested, and thus help identify which candidate technologies are capable of building a scalable quantum computer.Read moreRead less
Quantum algorithms for quantum chemistry. This project aims to develop more efficient algorithms to simulate quantum chemistry on quantum computers. Quantum computers have the potential to perform calculations that would be intractable for even the largest supercomputers, but need to be programmed in a radically different way to achieve this speed. One of the most important applications of quantum computers is to simulate quantum mechanics to predict the properties of molecules and materials, an ....Quantum algorithms for quantum chemistry. This project aims to develop more efficient algorithms to simulate quantum chemistry on quantum computers. Quantum computers have the potential to perform calculations that would be intractable for even the largest supercomputers, but need to be programmed in a radically different way to achieve this speed. One of the most important applications of quantum computers is to simulate quantum mechanics to predict the properties of molecules and materials, and thereby design them. Current quantum algorithms are very resource intensive, making them impractical for the foreseeable future. The expected outcome of this project is to provide much more efficient algorithms that can be run on quantum processors in the near future.Read moreRead less

Designer defects in diamond for solid state quantum networks. This project aims to develop an artificial atom in diamond that can connect to other nodes in a network. Network connectivity and data distribution are increasingly important in today's information economy. Tiny glowing artificial atoms in coloured diamonds can receive, store and send information in a network using laser light and microwaves. Because they work at the level of individual atoms and photons, they can use quantum-weirdnes ....Designer defects in diamond for solid state quantum networks. This project aims to develop an artificial atom in diamond that can connect to other nodes in a network. Network connectivity and data distribution are increasingly important in today's information economy. Tiny glowing artificial atoms in coloured diamonds can receive, store and send information in a network using laser light and microwaves. Because they work at the level of individual atoms and photons, they can use quantum-weirdness to achieve feats impossible even for supercomputers on the classical internet. The proposed device is expected to make it easier to construct technologies that move beyond the limitations of existing infrastructure thus satisfying the unmet core requirements for a quantum network.Read moreRead less

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.
