I am an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering at Concordia University, in Montreal.
I am hiring Master's and PhD students. Please email if interested!
Often, the key to solving a problem lies in uncovering some underlying symmetry. In most of my work, I find and leverage algebraic-geometric and representation-theoretic symmetries in problems coming from quantum information theory, tensor decompositions, and optimization.
Keywords: CP decomposition, secant variety, identifiability, stabilizer rank, quantum property testing, quantum state discrimination, entanglement theory, entangled subspaces, quantum de Finetti theorem, polynomial optimization, semidefinite programming.
