EU Funding

Progress in quantum informatics doesn't just depend on new technologies – it primarily needs new ideas. This is precisely where our current EU Horizon funding application comes in. Together with potential partners from research and industry, likely including KIT and Goethe University Frankfurt, we want to close a methodical gap: the missing bridge between complex real-world problems and quantum mechanically implementable algorithms.

Why we consider this call important

Many current research approaches in the quantum field build on already known algorithmic principles. However, the number of established quantum algorithms is small – which clearly shows how much room still remains for methodical foundational work. The current EU Horizon Call offers an opportunity to systematically address exactly this research gap.

Our approach: From semantic structure to quantum logic

Instead of designing individual algorithms for specific use cases as before, we propose a different path: We abstract problem statements using LLMs into high-dimensional vector spaces. In these representations, algorithmic structures can be generated exploratively – based on semantics, logical consistency, and quantum mechanical requirements.

An iterative feedback cycle between LLM and vector structure ensures that the generated proposals remain formally consistent and application-oriented. The goal is not to design new quantum algorithms manually, but to discover them systematically.

What we specifically plan

For a Proof of Concept (PoC) we plan:

• An annotated database of existing quantum algorithms
• A standardized data representation for algorithmic building blocks
• The coupling between LLM-based representations and quantum circuit layouts
• Simulation and validation of the generated structures

Interested in collaboration?

We welcome exchange and cooperation – especially with teams that bring expertise in quantum algorithms, AI-supported representation, or scientific infrastructure.
