Purpose
The purpose of this research project is to develop techniques for reducing the amount of resources required for performing practical quantum computing. Quantum computing is a form of computing that is based on the laws of quantum physics, rather than classical physics. It has the potential to be vastly more powerful than any of the computers existing today. There are certain computational problems for which there exist efficient quantum algorithms, although no efficient classical algorithm is known. The best-known example is Shor's 1994 quantum algorithm for factoring integers into primes.
