Quantum Information and Quantum Physics
Research Interests
Our research interests involve both theoretical understanding of fundamental physics from the point of view of quantum information theory and their possible applications in quantum technologies. It includes exploring basic questions and their physically realizable applications, in particular, related to quantum thermodynamics, heat engines, and statistical mechanics, quantum optics and spin-systems, foundations of quantum mechanics and quantum paradoxes, quantum superposition and coherence, quantum measurement and geometry, quantum quasi-probabilities and non-classicality, quantum non-Markovinaity in states and evolutions, quantum correlations between space-like separated systems and time-like separated events, quantum causality and causal relations, information theory for indistinguishable particles and quantum field theory (QFT), and black-hole information paradox.
