We are a vibrant and focused research group happily based in the Department of Physics at the University of Malta. We study the fundamental implications physics has on information and computation, typically viewed through the lens of quantum theory. Quantum theory has provided uninterrupted insights both in the fundamental laws governing our world and in the novel mathematics developed in its description.Quantum theory first provided a predictive mechanism explaining how atoms are formed. Applications widened yet the theory seemed riddled with an 'inherent complexity' and laced with the prediction of several peculiar non-intuitive features, first thought to be mathematical (not physically meaningful) artifacts.These 'oddities' turned out to be experimentally relevant, physically testable predictions. And a new quantum theory of information and computation put these 'paradoxes' to work as fundamental new features to be harnessed in the way matter and information behave and interact.Understanding the inherent complexity of the quantum world, the ramifications the laws physics place on information and computation and adapting the mathematical machinery developed in quantum theory such that it can tackle similar problems in related fields broadly defines our research commitment.
