Research Interests:

My interest in the field of quantum information science is diversified in to various topics, which broadly include:

1. Characterizing and quantifying quantum correlations in finite as well as infinite quantum systems.

2. Connecting quantum correlations to different quantum information protocols.

3. Studying the properties and behavior of quantum correlations present in many-body quantum systems.

4. Characterization, quantification, and manipulation of non-classicality features in continuous variable quantum systems

I also work on contemporary research interests in the broad areas of quantum information science.
