Mathematical Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Information, Quantum Trajectories, and their interactions with Probability Theory, Noise and Disorder, Random Matrix Theory, Concentration Inequalities
Part of my research is inspired by the Theory of Ergodic Quantum Processes from R. Movassagh and J. Schenker; dealing with the random matrix aspects of the density matrices
Still inside the broad field of disordered open quantum systems, two of the articles below analyze the effect that randomness has on quantum trajectories and on repeated measurements in general noisy environments
