Quantum computers, or processors, will make more inroads into things. They have a possible big role in understanding quantum black holes and quantum complexity. Any NP problem can be worked faster, at least in principle, with a quantum computer. In working on quantum complexity I see how this problem of a 1-dim chain filling space in a complex geometry or topology has a possible bearing on the Hodge conjecture. The use of epsilon balls and a regularization scheme in quantum complexity may play some role here.
