Kaumudibikash Goswami

My research area is focused on quantum information. The world of quantum physics offers many counter-intuitive experiences that sparked curiosity among physicists since the last century. Driven by this curiosity I started my PhD career with interest lying in the overlap of both experiment and theory. I started my PhD working on experimental development of indefinite causal order—a scenario where events can take place without the constraint of a fixed causal order. In my second experiment, I showed the communication advantage of such an indefinite causal order. Working with optics was quite fun, and the experience helped me to develop an intuition on pragmatic aspect of physics. Eventually, I developed a strong interest in the quantum information theory, also known as quantum Shannon theory. With this motivation, my current research interest is focused on developing the information theoretical aspect of quantum causal structure.
