This project supports U.S. participants to attend the workshop "Graph Theory, Algebraic Combinatorics, and Mathematical Physics" from July 25 to August 19, 2022 at Centre de Recherches Mathematiques (CRM) in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. This travel grant is aimed at providing support for U.S. based mathematical scientists who are early-career faculty, graduate students, and post-doctoral scholars, allowing them to build connections with the international scientific community. This will help in the training of the next generation of mathematicians in algebraic combinatorics and graph theory working on fundamental problems in quantum computing (a highly critical area whose growing importance has far-reaching consequences).An important intellectual scientific challenge of the past several decades is the quest to understand and harness the power of quantum information and computation. It is known that a quantum-assisted computation can perform sensitive tasks that are difficult for classical computers. To achieve this scientific challenge, quantum information science requires a broad participation ranging from physicists studying exotic quantum systems to mathematicians exploring abstract structures which lead to unexpected applications. The supported activity will foster and encourage the scientific participation and interaction of researchers from interdisciplinary mathematical areas to advance knowledge in quantum information science.The existence of a quantum computer is a well-known threat to cryptographic systems widely used in protecting sensitive information for financial, medical, and national security applications. On the other hand, the use of quantum technology for secure communication has also been demonstrated to be effective. It is important that the U.S. maintains and expands its current edge in this expanding and fast-moving scientific field. This grant will support early-career and junior U.S. scientists working in mathematics, physics, and computer science, to participate in an international research meeting on quantum information science. The participation of these scientists will build and strengthen the U.S. science personnel base in this highly critical area. A special effort will be made to attract participation from women, minorities and underrepresented groups, and from academics working in primarily undergraduate institutions.

该项目支持美国参与者参加2022年7月25日至8月19日在加拿大魁北克蒙特利尔的Centre de Recherches Mathematiques（CRM）举行的“图论，代数组合学和数学物理”研讨会。这项旅行补助金旨在为美国的数学科学家提供支持，他们是早期职业教师，研究生和博士后学者，使他们能够与国际科学界建立联系。这将有助于培养下一代数学家在代数组合学和图论工作的基本问题量子计算（一个高度关键的领域，其日益增长的重要性具有深远的影响）。过去几十年的一个重要的智力科学挑战是寻求理解和利用量子信息和计算的力量。众所周知，量子辅助计算可以执行经典计算机难以执行的敏感任务。为了实现这一科学挑战，量子信息科学需要广泛的参与，从研究奇异量子系统的物理学家到探索抽象结构的数学家，这些结构会导致意想不到的应用。支持的活动将促进和鼓励跨学科数学领域的研究人员的科学参与和互动，以推进量子信息科学的知识。量子计算机的存在是对广泛用于保护金融，医疗和国家安全应用敏感信息的密码系统的众所周知的威胁。另一方面，利用量子技术进行安全通信也被证明是有效的。重要的是，美国在这个不断扩大和快速发展的科学领域保持并扩大其目前的优势。这笔拨款将支持在数学，物理和计算机科学领域工作的早期职业和初级美国科学家参加量子信息科学的国际研究会议。这些科学家的参与将建立和加强美国在这一极其重要领域的科学人员基础。将作出特别努力，吸引妇女、少数民族和代表性不足的群体以及主要在本科院校工作的学者参加。研讨会网页：http://www.crm.umontreal.ca/2022/Graph22/index_e.phpThis奖反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为值得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的支持。
