Our group conducts research at the forefront of theoretical quantum physics and chemistry, with a particular focus on the interface between Quantum Information Theory, Quantum Chemistry, Quantum Computing, and Quantum Many-Body Physics. We employ rigorous analytical frameworks in close synergy with advanced computational methodologies to gain fundamental insights into interacting quantum many-body systems. Moreover, we refine existing numerical techniques and develop novel approaches that enable a more accurate and universal description of these systems across disciplinary boundaries.

Theory of quantum enhanced algorithms and quantum information.

We're working on fundamental problems in quantum information theory to understand the information processing in the most fundamental level and to break the limits on today's technologies.

The goal of our team is to gain insight into quantum foundations and quantum information by exploiting operational and information-theoretic approaches. The team has recently applied them to the field of causality and gravity.

The laws of quantum mechanics govern not only the behavior of elementary particles, but also the collective properties of many-body systems at low temperatures. Understanding the various phases in which quantum matter can organize itself has been a long-standing goal of theoretical physics, motivated both by the quest for new materials and by fundamental questions about the emergence of exotic phenomena in strongly correlated systems.
