Research Interests

* Quantum Foundations:\\r\\n o Nature of Entanglement,\\r\\n o Contextuality and Nonlocality in Quantum Information Theory\\r\\n\\r\\n For what fundamental tasks is entanglement a necessary resource?\\r\\n\\r\\n For what fundamental tasks is entanglement a helpful resource?\\r\\n\\r\\n How is entanglement linked to contextuality and nonlocality?\\r\\n\\r\\n What properties of information can be derived solely from contextuality?\\r\\n\\r\\n What information processing tasks rely only on the contextuality of information?\\r\\n\\r\\n Is nonlocality a necessary feature of a realistic contextual theory?\\r\\n\\r\\n What properties of information depend upon nonlocality?\\r\\n\\r\\n What is the connection between nonlocality and entanglement?\\r\\n\\r\\n * Quantum Cryptography:\\r\\n o Data Hiding\\r\\n\\r\\n Which quantum systems can hide information, which can\\\'t, and how, and why?\\r\\n\\r\\n When is entanglement able to unlock a system\\\'s otherwise hidden information?\\r\\n\\r\\n Can we quantify the resource requirements for hiding and extracting information in quantum systems?\\r\\n
