Welcome, András Molnár!

13.09.2021

With his expertise in the mathematical theory of tensor networks and their application to problems in quantum many-body physics, our new team member Dr. András Molnar is a much-appreciated addition to the Quantum Information & Quantum Many-Body Physics research group. We are happy to welcome him here in Vienna.

After completing his PhD at the Ludwig Maximilian University Munich and the Max-Planck-Institute of Quantum Optics, András has gained valuable experience working as postdoctoral researcher with Prof. David Pérez García at the Instituto de Ciencias Matemáticas (ICMAT) and the Universidad Complutense de Madrid in Spain.

András’ research interests lie in the different aspects of the mathematical theory of tensor networks, with a focus on questions which appear in the application of Matrix Product States (MPS) and Projected Entangled Pair States (PEPS) to the study of quantum many-body systems. This encompasses algebraic aspects, such as the representation theory of weak Hopf algebras and the characterization of symmetry realizations, as well as analytical aspects, such as rigorous results on the approximability of relevant many-body systems through Tensor Networks.
