I have three research areas: (a)
probabilistic systems (b) logic and computation and (c)
quantum information theory. I work on approximation of
continuous-state systems and associated metrics and logics.
I do not work directly in AI myself but I interact closely
with some AI researchers and provide some mathematical tools
that they might find useful.
In logic and computation I am interested in security and
modal logics for reasoning about information flow. In
quantum information theory I work on informatic phenomena in
relativistic situations. I am also interested in the one-way
model and in topological quantum computing.
I am a part of the Reasoning and Learning
Laboratory and interact with the Quantum information group.
I am funded in part by NSERC (Canada), by FQRNT (Quebec) and
by the Office of Naval Research (USA).
Bart Jacobs and I are organizing
a workshop
on coalgebras
at Bellairs this
March.
I have recently published a book
called Labelled
Markov Processes.
Here is a list
of my favourite fifteen papers.
