Samuel Bouaziz--Ermann

PhD Candidate at Sorbonne Université

About

I am currently a PhD student since 2021 in the Almasty and QI teams of the LIP6, in Paris, supervised by Alex Grilo and Damien Vergnaud. My subjects of interest are cryptography, quantum information and complexity theory. More precisely, some topics that I like are the Quantum Random Oracle Model, minimal assumptions for quantum cryptography (PRSs and variants), black-box reductions and separations in the quantum setting.

You can find my CV here.
