The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $119,999 EAGER (Early-concept Grants for Exploratory Research) Project Grant to Iowa State University under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070). The goal of this 1-year project is to explore and improve techniques for "circuit cutting" - a method used to break down large, complex quantum computing tasks into smaller, more manageable pieces. The research aims to investigate ways to accurately and efficiently recombine these smaller sub-solutions, in order to enable more reliable and effective quantum computing. This work could have significant impacts on fields like artificial intelligence, drug discovery, and secure communication, while also training the next generation of quantum computing researchers. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
