Markus Grassl

International Centre for Theory of Quantum Technologies

Markus Grassl received the Diploma degree in computer science and the Ph.D. degree from the Fakultät für Informatik, Universität Karlsruhe (TH), Germany, in 1994 and 2001, respectively.

He held positions at Universität Karlsruhe, the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information in Innsbruck, the Centre for Quantum Technologies in Singapore, and the University of Erlangen as well as the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light in Erlangen. Since 2019, he has been a Senior Scientist with the International Centre for Theory of Quantum Technologies, University of Gdansk.

His research interests include algebraic methods in quantum information science, focusing on constructions for various types of quantum error-correcting codes.  He maintains the online tables www.codetables.de of good block quantum error-correcting codes and good linear block codes.
