Research Interests
My research is centered around problems at the interface of theoretical computer
science, quantum information and cryptography. I like to use complexity theory
as a tool to study problems in quantum computing, and quantum mechanical
phenomena as a way to gain a new perspective on classical concepts from
theoretical computer science.
