Professor Broadbent is the University of Ottawa Research Chair in Quantum Information and Cryptography.

I am a Full Professor at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics of the University of Ottawa, and a former Alexander von Humboldt Fellow. I am interested in applications of Lie algebras, root systems, and finite groups of Lie type in cryptography and quantum information theory.

I am an Associate Professor in the School of Mathematics and Statistics at Carleton University. In addition to QUASAR, I am a member of the Joint Analysis Group between uOttawa and Carleton. I am also an Affiliate Member of the Institute for Quantum Computing in Waterloo.

I earned my PhD (MIT) in 1998, and was a Killam Postdoctoral Fellow (uAlberta) before coming to uOttawa, where I am now a Full Professor. I specialize in the representation theory of p-adic groups, which provides me with a plethora of algebraic tools with which to explore mathematical and post-quantum cryptography.

Arthur completed his M.Math in pure mathematics at the University of Waterloo, and PhD in mathematics at the University of Toronto prior to his position at uOttawa. His interests are focused on exploring problems that lie at the intersection of pure mathematics, computer science and physics.

Math PhD in 2003, worked in France (CNRS), uOttawa and Kyoto U

Professor Delaram Kahrobaei is the University Dean for Research at the City University of New York and a full Professor in the Computer Science and Mathematics departments at Queens College (CUNY). She is also an Adjunct Professor of Computer Science at Center for Cyber Security at the New York University as well as the President/co-founder of a university start-up Infoshield, Inc.

I am a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Ottawa. I obtained a Ph.D. in the mathematics of quantum information from the University of Waterloo under the supervision of Jon Yard and William Slofstra. My interests lie in quantum entanglement, nonlocal games, and their applications.

I'm a MITACS Accelerate Postdoctoral Fellow, working on a DQC project in collaboration with Ericsson Montreal. Before joining uOttawa, I worked as a Knowledge Associate at the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) Mumbai, India for one year. And, I completed my PhD from the Indian Institute of Technology Jodhpur, India in Quantum information.

My work focuses on the application of techniques from classical simulation of quantum systems to the development of new protocols in quantum cryptography. Before joining the University of Ottawa, my previous affiliation was the University of Waterloo, where I earned a PhD in the department of Combinatorics and Optimization in 2021.

I obtained my Ph.D. in mathematics at the University of Toulouse in 2023, and since then I have been doing my postdoc in uOttawa. I work mainly in quantum information theory, on questions related to non-local games.

I am a Master’s student in mathematics focusing on cryptanalysis of proposed quantum-safe digital signature schemes. I am particularly interested in multivariate-based signature algorithms that make use of the theory of finite fields. Outside of my studies, I am a competitive highland dancer.

I have a B.Sc. from the University of Saskatchewan and a M.Sc. from McGill University. My M.Sc. work was centered around conformal geometry. I have since redirected my focus to researching quantum cryptography and the ways in which it can be made more practical. I also enjoy all coffee-related things.

I am a Master’s student in Mathematics under the supervision of Dr. Broadbent. My research interests are in quantum cryptography and quantum algorithms. In my free time, I like to travel, play soccer and chess and meet new people!

I hold a B.Sc. from l'Université de Moncton as well as an M.Sc. from the University of Ottawa. As an undergraduate student, I did research in the field of particle physics phenomenology before shifting to quantum cryptography for my graduate studies. In my free time, I enjoy solving crossword puzzles.

I’m a Ph.D. Student in Mathematics under the supervision of Dr. Sankoff and Dr. Broadbent. My research interest lies primarily in Quantum Key Recycling. I’m also a number theory enthusiast!

Hi! I'm a French PhD student, working under the joint supervision of Anne Broadbent (Ottawa), and Ion Nechita and Clément Pellegrini (Toulouse, France). We work on the link between post-quantum resources and communication complexity.

I am a master’s student in mathematics, supervised by Dr. Broadbent. My background is in philosophy, computer science, and mathematics, and my current research interests are in quantum computing. Outside of school, I am involved in linguistics competitions (e.g., NACLO) as a problem writer, organizer, and coach.

Hello! I’m Sherry (she/her), and I'm a Master's student in Computer Science with Prof. Broadbent and Prof. Adams at the University of Ottawa.

Silvia Ritsch is a doctoral candidate working on post-quantum cryptography as part of the Quantum-Safe Internet (QSI) project. Her research is focused on password-authenticated key exchange secure against quantum attacks.

I helped build this website.

I am QUASAR's webmaster.
