My research is in Quantum Computing and Condensed Matter Theory. Presently, I am working on new forms of error correction involving 2-designs. I have a longstanding project on electromagnetic noise in quantum computers, particularly on the spatial correlations present in such noise. I am working improvements for the quantum adiabatic algorithm that involve the idea of catalysis. We have recently developed a theory of discrete scale invariance in Weyl semimetals and an explanation of the Kerr effect in unconventional superconductors.
