The Groups research areas are Quantum Information Theory and its interface with many-body physics and quantum optics. Specifically, the Group has interest in the field of quantum information science is diversified in to various topics, which broadly include:
1. Characterizing and quantifying multipartite quantum correlations in finite as well as infinite quantum systems.
2. Connecting multipartite quantum correlations to different quantum information processing tasks.
History: Our group started out at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg in 2001 (though it has roots to the Helsinki Institute of Physics from 1997), and relocated to the Institute of Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo in 2006.
Our position in the research landscape: Our group explores the interface between quantum communication theory and quantum optical implementations.
Our group deals with theoretical and computational atomic, molecular, and optical (AMO) physics with primary interest in the physics of Bose-Einstein condensates.
The freshly created group of Giulia Ferrini investigates quantum information protocols with continuous variables, with a special focus on quantum computation and quantum advantage, from the theoretical point of view. Strong collaborations with the group of Göran Johansson and the one of Per Delsing and Jonas Bylander, dealing with superconducting Josephson junctions at Chalmers (theory and experiments respectively), are being developed.
