Deepak Vaid
Theoretical Physicist
Exploring the quantum nature of spacetime through loop quantum gravity, quantum computing, and the geometry of entanglement.
About
Research
My work spans loop quantum gravity, quantum cosmology, and the deep connections between quantum information and spacetime geometry. I am particularly interested in how entanglement structure might encode the geometry of quantum spacetime.
Explore Research →Computation
I use computational tools — from symbolic algebra to quantum simulation — to probe regimes where analytical methods fall short. Code is both a tool and a form of theoretical expression.
