Rahul Trivedi joined Electrical & Computer Engineering in September from the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics where he was a postdoctoral scholar.
Trivedi focuses on developing tools for simulating many-body open quantum systems, using tools from quantum information theory and quantum complexity theory to understand the limitations of next-generation quantum information technologies and to develop hardware proposals for new technologies. He previously investigated computational electromagnetics, nanophotonics simulation and design, and theoretical quantum optics.
