Control of Quantum Systems @Erlangen
We are a newly established research group in Quantum Theory at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität (FAU) Erlangen-Nürnberg, led by Prof. Daniel Burgarth. We are interested in quantum control, open quantum systems and mathematical structures with applications in quantum technology. We are building a friendly and diverse group driven by open-ended curiosity and passion. We are particularly looking for applicants with good pencil and paper skills for analytical calculations.

The workshop "Control of Quantum Systems @Erlangen" [ConQuEr24] was held in Erlangen on December 11–13. It included talks by 13 invited speakers from all around the world, and a poster session. See the workshop website for all information. Thanks to all participants!
15 Apr 2025 Our member Davide Lonigro was interviewed by the FAU Profile Center Light.Matter.QuantumTechnologies: read here the interview.
10 Apr 2025 New postdoc in the group: Vjosa Blakaj joins the team just after obtaining her PhD at TU Munich. Welcome!
1 Apr 2025 Felix Fischer and Leonhard Richter stay in the team as newly appointed PhD students. Welcome again!
18 Mar 2025 Joschua Breithaupt and Robert Canda join the team as Bachelor students. Welcome!
23 Dec 2024 New ConQuEr paper under the Christmas tree: we find sufficient conditions under which finite-dimensional truncations of an unbounded quantum Hamiltonian reproduce the correct solution in the infinite-dimensional limit. This does not happen in general—some neat examples are discussed.
