Research interests
I am a theoretical physicist in the team
Theory of Quantum Circuits at Néel Institute.
My general research topic is quantum many-body physics, namely the study of condensed matter
systems described by a very large number of particles that obey the laws of quantum mechanics.
These are mathematical problems of exponential complexity, for which we are developing analytical
and numerical methods to tackle several current challenges, such as modeling the quantum transport
and the dynamics of artificial nanostructures that are engineered and studied experimentally in the lab.
I am in charge since 2022 of the Master 2 course "Quantum Many-Body Physics" given at ENS-Lyon.
Lecture notes are available here
Weekly Theoretical-Condensed-Matter-Physics Seminar in Grenoble
The seminar usually takes place on Friday at 11AM in room G421 of the LPMMC.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you want to present your work or to propose
external speakers.
