Simons renews quantum computing and mathematics collaboration with $6 million
Image: Primary The Simons Foundation renewed a research collaboration led by USC mathematician Aaron Lauda with a $6 million grant supporting another three years, USC announced. The collaboration spans 11 institutions and studies connections among knot mathematics, quantum computing and artificial intelligence.
The award raises the foundation's total investment in the project to $14 million, with USC receiving more than $2 million of the new funding. The team's expanded mathematical model for quantum computation remains theoretical and still needs a physical system to implement it.
