Welcome to my personal webpage! I am Yingkai Ouyang. I work in the field of quantum computing and quantum technologies. My core competency lies in quantum error correction and mathematical optimisation theory.
Quantum systems are fragile. To maximise the potential of existing quantum hardware, it is pertinent to optimise their performance subject to practical and realistic constraints.
My primary speciality within quantum error correction lies in constructing bespoke quantum error correction codes that satisfy prescribed physical constraints. Such quantum codes can be optimised for quantum applications such as quantum sensors, amongst the multitude of quantum technologies.
