Ph.D. Project
My schedule
Currently I am working on my Ph.D. thesis. The topic of the thesis is
the recycling of cryptologic keys using quantum communication.
My current research interests are:
Private quantum channels
Plaintext attacks on quantum encryption
Secure two-party quantum computation
From August 2000 to June 2002 I worked on my Master thesis:
"Characteristics of Unextendible Product Bases".
Unextendible Product Bases have close relations to entanglement and
indistinguishability, two phenomena unique to quantum mechanics. As
entanglement is a central resource in quantum-algorithms and
quantum-communication, the hope is that UPBs can lead to important
results in understanding entanglement. Indistinguishability is a
rather new concept which seems promising. In this thesis we focus on
UPBs themselves and reveal some of their structures and their
relations to entanglement and indistinguishability.
