Biography
I am a PhD student advised by Felix Leditzky. My research is in quantum information theory, where I use tools from optimization and representation theory to study the capacities of quantum channels and quantum error correction. I am also interested in privacy in quantum systems.
Previously I earned my BS-MS in mathematics at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Pune.
I expect to graduate in December 2026 and am looking for full-time roles in academia and industry. Please reach out at sgb4@illinois.edu if you know of any roles that might be a good fit.
Research Interests
Quantum information theory, quantum error correction, applications of representation theory
