Affiliations

I am recruting postdocs, masters and doctorate students to contribute to research projects in relations to quantum error correction, topological codes, and simulation of quantum many-body systems. You can contact me if yo are interested by one of these projects and have good skills in physics or mathematics.

Research interests:

Using the tools of quantum information science to address fundamental questions in physics.
Theory of quantum error correction---in particular the design of good quantum codes, the design of efficient decoding algorithms, and the study of their relation to statistical physics.
Devising and applying numerical techniques for the simulation of interacting quantum systems.
Devising quantum algorithm to study interacting quantum systems with a quantum computer.
