brings together the disciplines of physics, computing and mathematics
to conduct research into algorithms, complexity and cryptography. A
major research project on quantum information processing (QUIP) with
a key focus on quantum algorithms, has significant funding and is also
linked to Australia's Special Research Centre for Quantum Computing
Technology.
The QUIP project
features leading research in quantum information theory, quantum optics,
cryptography, coding theory and complexity. We seek to build on this
expertise by appointing a Research Fellow to lead research into quantum
algorithms, to collaborate with other researchers in the Centre and
to supervise students and postdoctoral researchers.
