I am a fourth-year physics Ph.D. student at the University of Southern California, working under the supervision of Aaron Lauda
My work focuses on the intersection of topology and physics, in particular on the application of Non-Semisimple Topological Quantum Field Theories to quantum computing and condensed matter
Universal quantum computation using Ising anyons from a non-semisimple topological quantum field theory.
