Research Interests
Quantum information theory, quantum computing, quantum cryptography. I also dabble in the black hole information paradox, topological order in two-dimensional quantum systems and mathematical signal processing.

Selected Recent Papers
* Private information via the Unruh effect
* Black holes as mirrors: Quantum information in random subsystems
* Counterexamples to the maximal p-norm multiplicativity conjecture for all p > 1
* Random quantum codes from Gaussian ensembles and an uncertainty relation

Prospective Students
I am currently recruiting M.Sc. and Ph.D. students. If you love computer science, mathematics and physics, and have a strong background in at least two of them, please apply! (Same goes for potential postdocs.)
