I am a theoretical physicist and Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Electronics at the Military University of Technology. My research lies at the intersection of theoretical physics and data science — I develop mathematical frameworks that extend quantum mechanical formalism into rigorous methods for anomaly detection and exploratory data analysis.
The primary focus of my current research is Quantum Information Field Theory (QIFT) — a framework developed jointly with Prof. Jacob Cybulski (Deakin University) that recasts data encoding in quantum machine learning through the lens of non-commutative Hamiltonian evolution. This approach addresses fundamental representational limitations of standard amplitude encoding, as formalised in The Inverse Born Rule Fallacy (2026).
I also work as a Quantum Machine Learning Engineer at finQbit, bridging theoretical advances with industrial deployment. Our joint publication Option Pricing on Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum Computers (2026) demonstrates a QNN-based approach to derivative pricing, benchmarked on IBM Fez, IQM Garnet, IonQ Forte, and Rigetti Ankaa-3.
My research trajectory spans several domains: PhD in particle physics (neutrino oscillations) → topological analysis of biomolecules (Nature Scientific Reports, 2018) → graph-theoretic methods in network science → quantum machine learning. A unifying thread throughout is the role of geometric and information-theoretic structures in both physical and data-driven models.
QIFT reframes data encoding in QML by treating observations as non-commutative Hamiltonian evolution. This overcomes the "phase-deaf" limitations of standard amplitude encoding, a critique formalized in The Inverse Born Rule Fallacy.
Critique of standard quantum representation paradigms and introduction of the relational information field framework.
Option Pricing on NISQ Computers: Our first flagship paper from finQbit. We demonstrate a QNN approach for financial derivatives, benchmarked on IBM Fez, IQM Garnet, and Rigetti Ankaa-3.
