I am one of the organizers of a 3-month semester on quantum information theory ad the Institut Henri Poincaré in Paris. Among other events, there will be a one-week workshop on Probabilistic techniques and Quantum Information Theory, Oct 23-27. Please register if you are interested in attending.
Continue readingLast week, at the invitation of Hun Hee Lee, I gave a series of three lectures on some applications of random matrix theory to problems in quantum information theory. The notes are available here. After discussing the Marchenko–Pastur theorem, I present my result with Teo Banica on partial transposition of
Continue readingI am organizing a week-long workshop in Toulouse, on topics of optimization problems in quantum information theory. Besides the usual research talks, there will be lectures by Aram Harrow, Jean Bernard Lasserre and Mihai Putinar on the topics of the workshop: linear matrix inequalities, semidefinite programming, and quantum information theory.

Continue readingIn this short post, I would like to discuss a special case of the construction introduced in the first part of the series, that is compute the set $K_{A_n}$, where $A_n \subset \mathbb C^n \otimes \mathbb C^n$ is the anti-symmetric subspace of the tensor product. This example plays an important
Continue readingA couple of days ago, I remembered the following fun fact from my high-school days in Romania: $! \frac{1}{9801}=0,(000102030405\cdots939495969799).$ First, note that I am using the European notation for periodic decimal expansions (or repeating decimals). What you get is a periodic expansion, where all the two-digit numbers from 00 to
Continue readingTogether with Adrian Basarab and Denis Kouamé, we are looking for a masters student who will work on compressive sensing, random matrices and applications to medical imaging. We are looking for a candidate having a solid background in mathematics, with knowledge of linear algebra, probability theory and numerical simulations. If
