About
I am trained as an experimental physicist in the area of Nonlinear and Quantum Optics. My current research interests cover Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Computation and Quantum Information. My broader interests cover the inter- relations of Physics, Mathematics and Philosophy. I run a research lab- "Nonlinear and Quantum Optics". I have given online lectures on "The theoretical minima of Quantum Mechanics, Q-Computation and Q-Game Theory".
