The focus of the group is to develop computational tools for designing quantum computers and networks which are as robust as possible to noise. This includes developing new algorithms, often based on mathematical insights, but also building software.
For example: simulators for analysing the impact of errors during a quantum computation, the search for resilient schemes for distributing entanglement over long distances, and computational methods for finding good error-correction codes.
Tim has multiple PhD vacancies and also opportunities for motivated MEP and BEP thesis students in Quantum Computer Science. If you are interested, please contact Tim by email.
More about Tim
Tim Coopmans is an Assistant Professor at QuTech and the EEMCS Quantum Computer Science (QCS) subdivision, Delft University of Technology. Before, he was a postdoc at the Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science, and part of the Applied Quantum Algorithms groups, with Alfons Laarman. He obtained a PhD from QuTech, under supervision of David Elkouss and Stephanie Wehner. Tim was honoured with a NWO Veni Talent grant and obtained a personal postdoc grant from Quantum Delta NL’s Quantum Technology Programme as well as a springboard grant from the Leiden University Fund.
