I am a PhD student in the Software Modeling and Verification Group headed by Professor Joost-Pieter Katoen. I also work closely with the Quantum Technology Group headed by Professor Hendrik Bluhm.
Research
My reasearch involves on the lower levels of quantum compilation, i.e. generation, scheduling, and optimization of device operation for quantum processors. The focus lies on quantum processor architectures featuring shuttling-operations, that allow physically moving qubits.
More specific topics of interest are:
- Qubit Routing via Multi-Agent Pathfinding methods
- Quantum Error Correction
Thesis Projects
If you are interested in writing a Bachelor/Master’s thesis in the area quantum compiler optimization feel free to contact me. Currently there are no open thesis topics, but You are invited to bring own ideas, or we can develop new ad-hoc topics in ongoing research.
Teaching
Currently I’m not involved in teaching activities.
