Fault-tolerant quantum computation with four-dimensional geometric codes

David Aasen is a researcher at Microsoft Quantum working at the intersection of quantum information, condensed matter physics, and topology.

His work focuses on topological quantum systems and their applications to fault-tolerant quantum computing. By leveraging the inherent robustness of topological phases, he develops new approaches to quantum error correction and scalable quantum architectures.

David Aasen’s research spans both the theoretical foundations and practical realisation of quantum computing technologies, with the goal of enabling reliable quantum computation in the presence of noise.
