A warm welcome to our two new Junior Fellows
The ETH Institute for Theoretical Studies will be joined by two new Junior Fellows in September 2020.
Alexandru Gheorghiu received his PhD in Computer Science from the University of Edinburgh in September 2018, under the supervision of Elham Kashefi. His main research interests are in quantum computation and cryptography, with a focus on verification of quantum computations. He is also interested in computational complexity theory and foundations of quantum mechanics. In his dissertation, he investigated and designed robust protocols for the verification of quantum computations.
Christoph Kehle received his PhD in mathematics from the University of Cambridge in 2020 under the supervision of Mihalis Dafermos. He is interested in analysis and partial differential equations, specifically in the context of general relativity. His thesis revealed a novel connection of Diophantine approximation arising from small divisors to general relativity, more precisely, the Strong Cosmic Censorship conjecture.
