About this listen

In this episode, I chat with Professor Aleks Kissinger from the University of Oxford, joint head of the Quantum Group at Oxford's Department of Computer Science. His research focuses on quantum foundations and quantum software, and in particular classical and quantum causal inference, classical simulation of quantum circuits, and various aspects of quantum compilation such as quantum circuit synthesis, routing, and optimisation. Much of this work makes use of diagrammatic and graph theoretic structures underlying quantum computations, e.g. co-authoring Picturing Quantum Processes, a.k.a. "The Dodo Book", which teaches quantum theory from first principles using string diagrams.
