      o Optimization: static calculations (phase transition) (chairperson: Pietro Silvi)
      Topic: Beyond VQE(?); Martin’s “scaling” ansatz; Quantum subspace expansion (Julian Schuhmacher and Anthony Gandon)
      o Dynamics (chairperson: Stefan Kühn and Jad Halimeh)
      Topic: Scattering: how large can we scale? Can we reach utility scale?
      o What else than Trotter? QDRIFT inspired ansatz, (chairperson: Alessandro Roggero or Oriel Kiss).
      o Scaling from 1D+1 to 2D+1 and possibly 3D+1 (HW dependences) – near-term vs fault-tolerant (what kind of chip topology will be needed?) (chairperson: Uwe Wiese and Arianna Crippa.)
      o Further topics: upon request
      o Possible new research directions (all). Consolidate and/or start working teams working around selected topics.
