We conduct collaborative research in Quantum Information Science (QIS), connecting it to quantum field theory, gravity, and condensed matter physics.
Our goal is to advance the understanding of fundamental QIS concepts (such as quantum entanglement and complexity), specifically by studying
The relationship between quantum information and gravity,
The dynamics of quantum information in many-body systems,
Information-theoretic quantum computation and simulation.
We utilize holography (AdS/CFT) and SYK models as theoretical laboratories. Our approach integrates quantum field theory, general relativity, and AI tools.
