Teaching

Universidad Autónoma de Madrid · Spring semester

A core undergraduate course about how motion becomes collective: from coupled oscillators and normal modes to waves, elasticity, and nonlinear behaviour.

Modelling Quantum Hardware: Open Dynamics and Control

How do we describe and control real quantum devices? We looked at platforms ranging from trapped ions and atomic clouds to photons and superconducting circuits, always keeping decoherence and experimental constraints in view.

Along the way: cooling, squeezing, sensing, quantum simulation, many-body interactions, error correction, and nonlinear resonators—with practical work in Python and Julia.

Computational Quantum Physics

This course connected the foundations of quantum mechanics with the numerical methods we use for interacting many-body systems.

We worked with: exact diagonalization, matrix product states, Monte Carlo methods, variational quantum eigensolvers, and neural-network approaches to quantum data.

Computational Approaches to Quantum Oscillators

Quantum oscillators are a wonderfully compact setting for learning about driving, amplification, cooling, coupling, sensing, and control.

The course used a flipped-classroom format: students explored the ideas together in class and built simulations with QuTiP and QuantumOptics.jl.

Seminar: Computational Methods for Quantum Optics

A journal club with an emphasis on doing reproducible research. Students chose papers, led the discussion, and created computational notebooks to accompany their presentations.

The goal was simple: understand current quantum-optics research deeply enough to reproduce, test, or extend part of it.
