  • Personal Statement

    I hold a Master's degree in Condensed Matter Physics from the Institute for Advanced Studies in Basic Sciences (IASBS). The focus of my master's thesis was on using machine learning and tensor network simulations to identify (topological) quantum phases and to determine the phase diagrams of the extended Bose-Hubbard and Kitaev ladder models.

    During my research, I gained extensive experience in machine learning, including both supervised and unsupervised techniques, convolutional neural networks, autoencoders, anomaly detection, and principal component analysis (PCA). Additionally, I studied and applied Monte Carlo methods and tensor networks to simulate quantum and classical systems.

    I am committed to advancing my research career in quantum physics and leveraging machine learning and innovative techniques to deepen my understanding of quantum phenomena.
