Tensor networks, critical phenomena, and field theory

I work on analytical and numerical methods for strongly correlated systems, critical phenomena, and quantum field theory.

My research combines tensor-network methods, renormalization-group ideas, and field theory to study critical phenomena and quantum many-body systems. Recent work spans finite-entanglement scaling, lattice and gauge-theory problems, and practical tensor-network algorithms.

FWO junior postdoctoral fellow Ghent University Since Oct. 2025

Current

FWO junior postdoctoral fellowship at Ghent University, started in October 2025, on tensor-network methods and universal physics.

Research Themes

Renormalization group flows, conformal data, finite-size effects, and topological or boundary phenomena.

Methods

Tensor network renormalization, matrix-product methods, and practical computational tools for many-body problems.

Research directions

A few topics that currently shape the work on this site.

Tensor network renormalization

Algorithms and fixed-point structures that make universal data accessible from lattice models and thermal states.

Critical phenomena

Finite-size and finite-entanglement effects, conformal signatures, and precision studies of phase transitions.

Lattice, gauge, and topological systems

Applications to chiral modes, anyon networks, non-orientable geometries, and gauge-theory observables.

Recent papers

Latest preprints and publication updates from the bibliography.
