There's a certain type of person who just can't be satisfied with a normal quantum Fourier transform algorithm. Instead, they feel compelled to go out there, spend years and years studying at universities, and eventually produce an improved quantum Fourier transform algorithm. Sean Hallgren, now doctor of computer science Sean Hallgren, is one of those people. Quantum algorithms are his cup of tea, his bread and butter, and his life's work - and he's so good at improving (and occasionally simplifying) them that he's been given a hundred thousand dollars by the National Science Foundation to continue his work.
