Areas of Research Interests/ Research Projects

My research focuses on theoretical physics problems in quantum computing, with particular emphasis on the intersection of quantum many-body physics, quantum information, and quantum computation. Specific directions include:

(1) the role of quantum entanglement, topology, and quantum many-body dynamics in quantum computing;

(2) fault-tolerant quantum computation and quantum algorithm;

(3) quantum computing theory motivated by experimental platforms.
