Harvard Quantum Theory Group
Welcome! We are an active interdisciplinary research group at Harvard University, broadly focused on quantum information science and its connections to theoretical computer science and theoretical physics. Our group is led by Professors Anurag Anshu, Sitan Chen, and Jordan Cotler, with affiliations spanning the Harvard Quantum Initiative, the John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS), and the Department of Physics.
Our current research interests include learning algorithms for quantum systems, Hamiltonian complexity, quantum algorithms, quantum sensing, quantum many-body physics, and related theoretical questions aimed at understanding the quantum world and developing useful quantum technologies.
