Research Interests

I have broad interests in the theory of quantum matter, with my research to date focused largely on emergent phenomena that occur in systems containing a large number of interacting quantum particles. Sometimes the problems I work on are abstract, such as studying the way in which computational problems can be encoded in certain quantum systems. At other times they are more concrete, such as using hints from experiments to understand how unusual types of superconductors function. In all cases, I am always eager to apply insights from mathematics and theoretical computer science to better inform my work.
