Research Interests

Quantum information theory and quantum computing. I’m interest in the interplay of

physics, mathematics, and computer science in understanding the possibilities and

limitations of quantum mechanical systems for information processing and computation.


Selected Recent Publications

A quasipolynomial-time algorithm for the quantum separability problem

Local random quantum circuits are approximate polynomial-designs

Faithful Squashed Entanglement

Exponential quantum speed-ups are generic

The quantum one-time pad in the presence of an eavesdropper

A generalization of quantum Stein’s Lemma

A reversible theory of entanglement and its connection to the second law
