Nontechnical Abstract:This award supports the second report-out meeting of current recipients of the EAGER awards focusing on topological quantum computing. The funding opportunity, announced in February 2017 with NSF 17-053 Dear Colleague Letter: Funding Opportunity - A "Quantum Leap" Demonstration of Topological Quantum Computing" generated 15 funded EAGER proposals focusing on research in the area of braiding. The first meeting was organized in the Spring of 2018, and involved participants of the first "class" of EAGER awards made in 2017. This award supports the second meeting, scheduled for the second week of July 2019. The workshop enables a full report-out and overview of accomplishments so far based on results of work done within the first 2 years of funding existence, which marks the final report for the first class of awards, and 1-year report for the second class of the 2-year EAGER awards. Technical Abstract:Providing experimental evidence for braiding is a needed transformative step towards topological quantum computing. Ability to generate, control and braid Majorana zero modes is central to this effort. Theoretical support is required to design braiding schemes, ways to design and execute algorithms, and enable topological quantum computation protected from local disturbances by non-local character of the shared quantum state. The meeting of Principal Investigators funded through the NSF 17-053 Dear Colleague Letter: Funding Opportunity - A "Quantum Leap" Demonstration of Topological Quantum Computing", will serve as report-out session and review of accomplishments, while also providing an opportunity for the award recipients to exchange and discuss details of their findings and plan next steps.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

非技术摘要：该奖项支持EAGER奖当前获奖者的第二次报告会议，重点是拓扑量子计算。2017年2月，NSF 17-053 Dear Colleague Letter：Funding Opportunity - A“Quantum Leap”Demonstration of Topological Quantum Computing”宣布了资助机会，产生了15个资助的EAGER提案，专注于编织领域的研究。第一次会议于2018年春季举行，参与者是2017年EAGER奖项的第一届“班级”。该奖项支持定于2019年7月第二周举行的第二次会议。该研讨会能够根据资助存在的前2年内所做的工作成果全面报告和概述迄今为止的成就，这标志着第一类奖项的最终报告，以及2年EAGER奖项第二类的1年报告。技术摘要：为编织提供实验证据是迈向拓扑量子计算所需的变革性一步。产生、控制和编织马约拉纳零模式的能力是这项工作的核心。需要理论支持来设计编织方案，设计和执行算法的方法，以及使拓扑量子计算免受共享量子态的非局部特性的局部干扰。通过NSF 17-053亲爱的同事信资助的主要研究者会议：资助机会-拓扑量子计算的“量子飞跃”演示”，将作为报告会议和成果审查，同时也为获奖者提供了一个交流和讨论他们发现的细节以及计划下一步的机会。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，
