Aidan Zlotak
Education
Worcester Polytechnic Institute, M.S. in Physics, 2023
Florida Institute of Technology, B.S. in Physics, 2021
I joined the WPI physics department as a Ph.D. in 2021, now I work with Professor Romain Murenzi in Mathematical Quantum Physics. My work encompasses the applications of quantization methods to various fields including Quantum Computation, Quantum Cryptanalysis, and Signal Processing. My research interests vary from investigating applications to quantum information science, to applying the mathematical similarities between quantum mechanics and signal analysis to data processing methods. I have publications in international journals for quantum information/mathematical physics and have upcoming presentations at the APS Global Physics Summit. I have years worth of experience in education at the college and high school level in mathematics and physics, in both tutoring and lecture settings.
Outside of the university, I enjoy my time in the New England landscape and working on my musicianship as a clarinetist.
