About Me
Hey! My name is Otto. I am a doctoral student in Physics and Mathematics, currently doing research on geometry of tensor networks in correlated systems as a Marie-Curie fellow in the TENORS project. My stations for the MSCA fellowship are the Max-Planck for Mathematics in Science, the BEC Pitaevskii Center at the University in Trento and the quantum computing company Quandela in Paris. You can find information about the doctoral position here.
In my studies I put most focus on Quantum Optics, Quantum Information Theory and Quantum Many-Body Systems. Currently I focus on tensor networks for correlated systems and their computational aspects using algebraic geometry.
If you are interested in poetry or rhymes, you can find some above (write me a mail for the password). I also included various link to interesting documents and website...

Recent and past projects (somewhat chronological)
Quantum Memories
Quantum memories are a crucial part of quantum communication and quantum computation. I did my Masters thesis about quantum memories in atomic ensembles at the Photonic Quantum Information Group of Ian Walmsley at Imperial College London. It has been a perfect combination of aspects of Quantum Optics and Atomic physics. You can find my thesis here.
String theory
String theory is an illusive but nontheless interesting and fascinating subject. Here you will find some texts and references. However: "It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart you are. If it doesn't agree with experiment, it's wrong."
You can find my seminar thesis on torus amplitudes and modular invariance here. The bible for introductory string theory can be found here
Circuit Quantum Dynamics
Circuit Quantum Dynamics is the foundation for superconducting qubits, the most promising realisation of computable quantum bits. You can find an amateur bachelor project on the topic here.
