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
* The fidelity alternative and quantum measurement simulation
* Trade-off capacities of the quantum Hadamard channels
* 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
