I study unconventional relaxation and thermalization in open quantum systems, with a focus on Mpemba effects and on how symmetries, spectral structure, and environmental memory reshape the approach to steady state.

I investigate applications to quantum computing, including fast qubit reset and dissipation-assisted quantum control. I also study hybrid digital-thermodynamic algorithms, where accelerated thermalization speeds up linear-algebra operations.

I develop tensor-network methods for nonequilibrium quantum dynamics and apply them to condensed-matter problems, from electron–phonon and light-driven dynamics to interacting open quantum many-body systems.
