Background
  • Research interests: Algorithms (graph-theoretic problems, matrix multiplication, the group isomorphism problem, etc.), complexity theory (especially communication complexity and query complexity), quantum computation, distributed computing.
Miscellany
  • Teaching experience: Taught multiple courses at Nagoya University, Kyoto University, and the University of Tokyo, covering topics such as linear algebra, introduction to quantum computing, theory of computational complexity, fundamentals of discrete optimization, introduction to algorithms, and introduction to cryptography and coding theory.
