Hello, I’m Hanchen Liu.
Physics Ph.D. candidate — quantum information • statistical physics • high‑performance computing.
About
I am a Ph.D. candidate in Physics at Boston College advised by Prof. Xiao Chen. My research focuses on quantum information and statistical physics, including measurement‑induced entanglement transitions and error‑correction phase transitions. On the computational side, I build large‑scale simulators with Python, C/C++ (C++20), MATLAB (C‑MEX, Parallel Computing Toolbox), and Julia on Linux/HPC clusters (SLURM). I’m proficient with Git/GitHub and performance‑minded implementation.
Previously, I earned an M.A. in Physics from Stony Brook University (advisor: Prof. Jennifer Cano) and a B.S. in Physics from Sichuan University, China.
