Michał Horodecki

Michał Horodecki (born 1973[1]) is a Polish physicist at the University of Gdańsk working in the field of quantum information theory, notable for his work on entanglement theory.[2]

He co-discovered the Peres-Horodecki criterion for testing whether a state is entangled, and used it to find bound entanglement together with his brother Paweł Horodecki and father Ryszard Horodecki. He co-discovered with Jonathan Oppenheim, Paweł Horodecki and Karol Horodecki that secret key can be drawn from some bound entangled states. Together with Fernando Brandao he proved that every one-dimensional quantum state with a finite correlation length obeys an area law for entanglement entropy. Together with Jonathan Oppenheim and Andreas Winter, he discovered quantum state-merging and used this primitive to show that quantum information could be negative.

gollark: What if I describe it in very little detail?
gollark: That sure is the letter X (capital).
gollark: > an additional rule change:> submissions should be your own original work. it is discouraged (though allowed) to take code from external sources such as the internet, and it is no longer allowed to submit original code written by any other member of the server after the round started.What if I just describe my code to someone in detail and have them rewrite it?
gollark: I see.
gollark: Why not just average % after subtracting 1?
