Giuseppe Carleo is a computational quantum physicist, whose main focus is the development of advanced numerical algorithms to study challenging problems involving strongly interacting quantum systems.
He is best known for the introduction of machine learning techniques to study both equilibrium and dynamical properties,
based on a neural-network representations of quantum states, as well for the time-dependent variational Monte Carlo method.
He earned a Ph.D. in Condensed Matter Theory from the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA) in Italy in 2011.
He held postdoctoral positions at the Institut d'Optique in France and ETH Zurich in Switzerland, where he also
served as a lecturer in computational quantum physics.
In 2018, he joined the Flatiron Institute in New York City in 2018 at the Center for Computational Quantum Physics (CCQ), working as a Research Scientist and project leader, and also leading the development of the open-source project NetKet.
Since September 2020 he is a professor at EPFL, in Switzerland, leading the Computational Quantum Science Laboratory (CQSL).

Courses

Summer school: Simulating Many-Body Quantum Physics

PHYS-820

Computational quantum physics

PHYS-463

The numerical simulation of quantum systems plays a central role in modern physics. This course gives an introduction to key simulation approaches, through lectures and practical programming exercises. Simulation methods based both on classical and quantum computers will be presented.

Quantum physics IV

PHYS-426

Lecture series on scientific machine learning

PHYS-754

This lecture presents ongoing work on how scientific questions can be tackled using machine learning. Machine learning enables extracting knowledge from data computationally and in an automatized way. We will learn on examples how this is influencing the very scientific method.

Introduction to quantum science and technology

QUANT-400

This course provides all students with a broad view of the diverse aspects of the field: quantum physics, communication, computation, simulation, quantum hardware technologies, quantum sensing and metrology. The course will be an overview of frontiers of the domain and taught by multiple instructors

Advanced computational physics
