Hello !
As of February 2022, I am a Senior Research Scientist and Scientific Project Manager at Cambridge Quantum Computing & Quantinuum (that I originally joined in 2016 as a Research Fellow) and I am also the Secretary General of QuantX, an alumni group of the École polytechnique dedicated to animating the French quantum ecosystem that I founded in April 2020 and the VP of Special Projects of Le Lab Quantique, the largest Paris-based think-tank on quantum technologies.
Before my current occupation, I was a McDuff Postdoctoral Fellow at the MSRI, Berkeley, attending the program "Universality and Integrability in Random Matrix Theory and Interacting particle Systems" during Fall 2021 and I was a Postdoctoral Fellow at SISSA, Trieste, under the supervision of Pasquale Calabrese between 2019 and 2022 working on Out-Of-Equilibrium Quantum Systems. I completed my Ph.D at the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris in Statistical Physics and Random Matrix Theory under the supervision of Pierre Le Doussal in June 2019. Prior to that, I read Part III of the Mathematical Tripos at the University of Cambridge, Corpus Christi College and I graduated from the École polytechnique (X2012). |

We just published out last pre-print with Pierre Le Doussal on arXiv. It is entitled "The weak noise theory of the O'Connell-Yor polymer as an integrable discretisation of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation".
In this work, we investigate and solve the weak noise theory for the semi-discrete O'Connell-Yor directed polymer. In the large deviation regime, the most probable evolution of the partition function obeys a classical non-linear system which is a non-standard discretisation of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation with mixed initial-final conditions. We show that this system is integrable and find its general solution through an inverse scattering method and a novel Fredholm determinant framework that we develop. This allows to obtain the large deviation rate function of the free energy of the polymer model from its conserved quantities and to study its convergence to the large deviations of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation. Our model also degenerates to the classical Toda chain, which further substantiates the applicability of our Fredholm framework. |
