HS&A: Higher Structures and Applications

Project funded by Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, I.P. (FCT) (Concurso para Financiamento de Projetos de Investigação Científica e Desenvolvimento Tecnológico em Todos os Domínios Ci), grant PTDC/MAT-PUR/31089/2017. Funded amount: EUR 239,784, as stated by the source. Runs 2018-07-01 to 2022-06-30. Keywords: TQFT, Categorification, Higher gauge theory, Topological quantum computing, Exact sciences. Source: OpenAIRE Graph, from the funder's project data (collected by OpenAIRE on 2026-07-23); national funding data, not CORDIS; selected because its keywords name quantum. Abstract given by the source: This project uses higher algebraic structures to obtain new results in topology, geometry and algebra, and to develop applications in related areas of physics and in topological quantum computation. Este projeto usa estruturas algébricas superiores para obter novos resultados em Topologia, Geometria e Álgebra, e para desenvolver aplicações em áreas relacionadas de Física e em computação quântica topológica.
