Before that, he held an Inria Starting Faculty position hosted by the École Normale Supérieure de Lyon (ENS Lyon) and was a member of the QInfo team. Daniel was also a postdoc at the Qmath group at the University of Copenhagen under the supervision of Matthias Christandl, and before that, he did his PhD at the Technical University Munich under the supervision of Michael Wolf.

Research interests

Daniel works on a variety of topics, including:

• Learning of quantum states and channels.
• Quantum functional inequalities and quantum Gibbs sampling.
• Quantum algorithms, with a focus on algorithms for optimization.
• Near-term quantum computing and its limitations.

Publications, talks and collaborations

You can find all of his papers on the arXiv and they are also listed on Google Scholar.

Daniel is happy to count on a wide network of collaborators and loves to travel to give talks. Click here for an interactive map with all of my collaborators and here for an interactive map of all the places where I have already given talks!
