ABOUT ME

I am a senior researcher at the University of Cologne, interested in various topics in quantum computing. Currently, my research focus is on random quantum circuits and their behaviour under gate noise. Moreover, I have been working on quantum characterization and learning, in particular randomized benchmarking and classical shadows. During my PhD, I studied topics related to the stabilizer formalism and the Clifford group, namely classical simulation methods, resource theories for quantum computing, and the construction of (approximate) unitary t-designs.
