I study the theory of quantum algorithms at the University of Tokyo; until recently I was at MIT completing my doctorate, advised by Ike Chuang ↗. My work draws on techniques from representation theory, functional analysis, and algebraic geometry to construct interpretable quantum algorithms for common problems in numerical linear algebra.

Quantum computing lacks diverse algorithmic techniques, and those that exist are fragile & specific. My takeaway from this is the virtue of translating sophisticated techniques from well-established mathematical subfields to the lexicon of quantum computation.

Not only does this pad-out the quantum algorithmist's toolkit but, if done generously, it can also recruit the interest and collaboration of previously disparate mathematical and TCS communities.

The subfield of quantum algorithms is a wonderful chimera of physicists, mathematicians, and computer scientists. I prize this heterogeneity: its insistence that I learn multiple ways of saying similar things.

As of your reading this no research, application, or post you've seen from me has been written with the assistance of a large language model. I hold no ire for their use in principle, but I appreciate disclosure.

I recently overhauled our Python-based numerical package, pyQSP ↗, used to handle all-things quantum signal processing (QSP) related, to be more numerically stable and user-friendly. Check out the revamped documentation and expanded features in v0.2.0!

I started as a JSPS Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Tokyo with Professor Mio Murao's (村尾・美緒) group from August of 2024. If you are a researcher in Japan, or are interested in quantum/TCS research in Japan, drop me a line!

I was lucky to be able to intern at NTT Research Inc. in California, as well as visit and work at NTT BRL in Atsugi, Japan for a semester in 2022. 今から日本での研究グループの関係を作るのが続けたいので、僕の研究に興味が持てば気軽にメールして下さい。日本語でも大丈夫です。
