Research Interests
My research interests include quantum cryptography, especially quantum key distribution protocols with the use of high-dimensional quantum systems (qudits). Recently I have taken an interest in quantum computing with NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) hardware, especially in conjunction with practical algorithms with use in chemistry and condensed matter physics.
- Quantum Key Distribution
- Quantum Cryptography
- Quantum Chemistry
- Quantum Optimisation
