Research Interests

Quantum information

• Quantum simulation in arrays of topological superconductors
• Long-range coupling of spin-qubits via superconducting couplers
• Majorana fermions for topological quantum computation applications

Mesoscopic physics

• Superconducting qubits as quantum-information or measurement devices
• Classification of topological insulator via transport properties
• Shot noise and full counting statistics of charge transport

Atomic, molecular, and optical physics

• Statistics of photons in a non-linear system close to the classical threshold
• “Light” (microwave) emission from Josephson junctions
• Excitations in strongly-correlated atomic Fermi systems
