Universal quantum computation in thermal equilibrium
Adiabatic quantum computation (AQC) is a method for performing universal quantum computation in the ground state of a slowly evolving local Hamiltonian, and in an ideal setting AQC is known...

Searching for Dark Matter with Athermal Phonon Detectors Throughout the Mass Range from 50meV through 500MeV
Substantial astronomical observations have established that approximately 25% of the energy density of the universe is composed of cold non-baryonic dark matter, whose detection and characterization could be key to...

Quantum Computing with Equiangular Projections
We will investigate a common property of the measurements used in measurement-based quantum computing paradigms. We will show how this relates to the notion of equiangular planes. We will ask...

Entanglement wedge reconstruction and operator algebras
In order to satisfy the Reeh-Schlieder theorem, I study the infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces using von Neumann algebras. I will first present the theorem that the entanglement wedge reconstruction and the...

Timeless formulation of Wigner’s friend scenarios
At the heart of the quantum measurement problem lies the ambiguity about exactly when to use the unitary evolution of the quantum state and when to use the state-update in...

Deciphering the Landscape of Binary Black Hole Formation Channels
Merging compact objects encode a vast deal of information about their progenitor stellar systems, such as the types of galactic environments they were born in, the intricacies of stellar evolution...

Unitarization from geometry
Scattering amplitudes of massive spin-2 particles generically grow with energy and lead to violations of perturbative unitarity. One way to partially soften such amplitudes is with the infinite towers of...
