UC Davis Computer Science is expanding its efforts in Quantum Information. Dr. Isaac Kim, a theorist working on quantum computing and quantum many-body physics, has joined the department as an Assistant Professor and an NSF Quantum Computing and Information Science Faculty Fellow.

"My goal is to solve interacting quantum many-body systems from first principles, either analytically or numerically. Currently, I am primarily working on the following topics: Quantum algorithms, Quantum error correction and Entanglement bootstrap. I also have a side interest in a fascinating connection between quantum information and holographic duality," says Kim.
