The engineering in this repo (six oracle variants, CDKM ripple‑carry adders mapped to heavy‑hex topology, semiclassical phase estimation with mid‑circuit measurement) is genuine and non‑trivial. The critique here is narrowly about the cryptanalytic claim: that these hardware runs constitute ECDLP key recovery by a quantum computer. They do not. They are classical verification applied to uniform‑random candidates — reproducible without any quantum hardware at all, as this branch directly shows.

We invite applications for in classical and quantum machine learning, as part of a collaborative research initiative between the MathEXLab of NUS (Mechanical Engineering) and the Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT).


We are writing new #quantum and classical #GenAI algorithms (theory + software implementation), with applications in #drugdiscovery and #molecularmodelling.

The ideal candidate has a publication record that reflects both theoretical and practical skills. Familiarity with #graph machine learning, representation theory, quantum computing, and drug discovery is a plus.
