Welcome to my academic webpage.
I’m a researcher in the field of quantum information theory at Inria Paris.
My research is focused on the interplay between information theory and optimisation. Together they form a modern and powerful toolbox that can be applied to quantum information theory.
In the past, I have worked extensively on applications in quantum cryptography (such as finite-size security proofs for quantum key distribution or device independent protocols). More recently, I started a new research line quantum computing and quantum error correcting codes.
