Poornaprajna Institute of Scientific Research
Theoretical Sciences Division
The group explores problems in condensed matter physics, i
many-body physics, quantum
information theory and foundations of quantum mechanics.
Understanding how quantum features shape the world we see around
us can be described in the language of information theory and can
be exploited to perform computation in novel ways, is the goal of
quantum information and computation theory. Condensed matter physics,
which broadly covers such diverse areas as many-body physics and
nanoscience, has proved to be a rich playground for studying quantum
effects. These areas are of interest to the group, as well as exploring
entanglement (non-classical correlations) dynamics and quantum
information processing in condensed matter systems.
