Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Paving the Path to Practical Quantum Simulations through Resource Optimization
1014934
This project seeks to enhance simulations of strongly correlated quantum systems by devising techniques to reduce the necessary quantum resources. This helps make them more feasible on near-term quantum computers. The endeavour encompasses identifying relevant target systems, quantifying qubit counts, circuit depths, and other essential resources for simulation, and applying entanglement reduction methods to simplify simulations while preserving crucial properties. The aim is to offer insights into practical requirements for valuable quantum simulations in materials science, quantum chemistry, and related fields. If successful, the quantum resource quantification and entanglement reduction techniques could significantly expedite discovery and innovation in domains dependent on modelling the quantum properties of matter

Grid-based quantum dynamics on quantum computing devices.
1014944
The aim of the project is to develop a novel grid-based formalism for solving the Schrodinger equation of quantum chemistry on a digital quantum device, with potential extensions to other multivariate partial differential equations. A major focus of applications is the dynamics of strongly correlated molecular systems beyond the Born Oppenheimer approximation. Using the novel realspace qubit representation of the Hamiltonian, based on a quantum equivalent of mechanical binary odometer, variational and Hamiltonian simulation protocols can be developed in analogy with the Ritz-Galerkin formalism for the solution of partial differential equations on classical grids. Numerical simulations of the quantum dynamics of vibronically coupled systems will be benchmarked against classical simulations generated at NRC.
