Research

Our group conducts theoretical research on dynamical phenomena in nanoscale quantum-mechanical systems, with a particular focus on the transfer and transport of quantum information. We combine analytical and numerical techniques to investigate a range of topics, including:

Distribution and routing of quantum information - Understanding how quantum information—particularly entanglement—is distributed across interacting quantum systems, and how this process can be used to steer and control the flow of information, remains an open challenge. We study problems such as the design and analysis of optimal quantum-routing operations in solid-state hardware, as well as probing quantum-information distribution using out-of-time-ordered correlators [preprint in progress].

Quantum state transfer - We are also interested in transport of quantum states through quantum devices that can serve as quantum data buses. One example is the development of (super)adiabatic protocols for quantum state transfer with high accuracy and minimal control.

Detection of entanglement - Entanglement detection diagram A recurring theme in our group is the dynamical evolution of entanglement in qubit systems. We investigate how entanglement can be detected efficiently under realistic experimental conditions, for example through the use of entanglement-witness operators.
