This $262,269 award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program will support a project at Georgetown University to advance research in circuit complexity and cryptography. The project aims to develop new techniques for proving lower bounds against shallow circuits and constructing weak one-way functions. The work will include developing new courses and online offerings to educate students on circuit complexity and theoretical computer science. No subawards are planned. This award reflects NSF's mission of funding fundamental research and education in computing and will be conducted at Georgetown's facilities in Washington, D.C. over a period of approximately 5 years, with a final completion date of February 2029.
