UNM Engineering professor part of $7.5 million DOE quantum computing research
October 17, 2024
Milad Marvian, an assistant professor in the University of New Mexico School of Engineering, is part of a $7.5 million Department of Energy (DOE) project to research quantum algorithm theory and advance the study of quantum computing.
“Our goal is to develop novel mathematical tools that can enrich our understanding of the power and limitations of quantum computation, and provide fresh insights into the design of new quantum algorithms,” Marvian said.
A faculty member in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and a member of Quantum New Mexico Institute, Marvian will work on the quantum research project titled, “FAR-Qu: Fundamental Algorithmic Research towards Quantum Utility.” The project is led by Sandia National Laboratories in partnership with UNM, Caltech, University of Maryland, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Argonne National Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
