I am the leader of the "Quantum Generalizations of Markov Chain Monte Carlo Methods" Lendület (Momentum) group at the Rényi Institute. My main research topic is quantum algorithms and complexity, with a recent focus on stochastic quantum processes related to Glauber and Metropolis dynamics, and more generally quantum walks and quantum linear algebra methods (quantum singular value transformation and the block-encoding framework) with application in optimization and related fields. I received my PhD in 2019 from the University of Amsterdam, where I was supervised by Ronald de Wolf and co-supervised by Harry Buhrman at CWI/QuSoft. Between 2019 and 2021 I was an IQIM postdoctoral fellow at Caltech, meanwhile I received the ERCIM Cor Baayen Young Researcher Award in 2019 and was a Google Research Fellow at the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing in Berkeley during the "The Quantum Wave in Computing" program in the spring of 2020. I was a Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellow at the Rényi Institute between 2021-2025.
- I was awarded an ERC Starting Grant in 2025 and have open postdoc positions available starting fall 2026. Organizing and group activity
- I am organizing the QComputing workshop held between 23-25 September 2025 in Budapest, celebrating 200 years of the Hungarian Academy of Science and 100 years of Quantum mechanics.
- I am organizing the Budapest Open Quantum Systems Seminar. If you would like to join the mailing list please send me an e-mail.
- Earlier, I was organizing the Quantum Computer Science Seminar Series in Budapest.
