I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics, Queen Mary University of London. I am also holding the Schmidt AI in Science Fellowship at the Department of Physics, and Associate Research Fellowship at Reuben College. My research lies in the exploration of quantum computing as a means to address problems that present challenges for classical computing. I aim to uncover the potential power of quantum computing, and examine whether it holds advantages in tackling quantum many-body problems. I am also interested in applying AI/quantum AI to real-world problems like materials and molecules. 

I have a broad interest in quantum computing, quantum information, and quantum many-body physics, which include

  • Quantum computing
    • Quantum algorithms for eigenstate problems and dynamics problems
    • Hybrid quantum-classical computing
    • Quantum simulation of molecules and materials
    • Addressing the challenges in the use of near-term quantum devices
  • Open quantum dynamics and non-Markovianity
  • Quantum error correction
  • Quantum computational chemistry
  • Quantum many-body physics, e.g., high-temperature superconductivity and magnetism

Feel free to reach out if you are interested in joining the group at 91探花 or Queen Mary. Find interesting research topics and descriptions of my research works as well as PhD openings on my personal website ().
