Email is the best way to reach me. I read everything, but between school, sports, and research, replies can take a while.

FAQ
The solar code is mine and it is MIT licensed, so you can read it, run it and build on it: quantum-solar. The circuit repository is different. ecdsa-circuit-optimization is my fork of the challenge, most of the code in it belongs to other people, and I added no license of my own, because you can only grant permission for work you own. Its NOTICE file says who owns what.
Yes, on the solar repository: bug fixes, test cases, other algorithms, better figures. For the circuit work, send anything to the competition repository upstream, not to my fork. My own three findings went there.
The solar README has the install. The classical solvers need only numpy, so you can check the $455.72 without installing anything quantum. python -m quantum_solar prints it from data committed to the repository, with no key and no network, and the notebook rebuilds the same result three independent ways. For the hardware numbers, every IBM job ID is listed in one table, so you can see which run each number came from.
If you are working on something related, or you spot a mistake in my work, I would like to know.
