Areas of Expertise and Interest

Condensed matter Physics and Quantum Gases: models to understand high Tsuperconductivity, physics of Fermi ultracold gases, electronic systems, superfluids and low dimensional quantum systems. Ab-initio studies of equilibrium properties and dynamical response functions. Theoretical and computational approaches to quantum many-body systems. 

Probability theory, stochastic processes, stochastic differential equations and numerical simulation techniques, in particular Quantum Monte Carlo, both in the configurational space and in the Slater determinants manifolds.

Statistical methods for ill-posed inverse problems, with applications to the study of dynamical properties of many-body quantum systems via Quantum Monte Carlo simulations.
