My name is Joaquín Peñuela-Parra. I am a colombian Physicist graduated from Universidad de los Andes (Uniandes) with experience in areas such as Theoretical Condensed Matter, Phenomenology Particle Physics, Mathematics, and Computer Science. I am currently doing a Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) in the group of Dr. Juan José Mendoza Arenas at the the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt). In this group we use tensor networks to investigate quantum materials, quantum computing, quantum transport and fluid turbulence. In particular, my current work consists of using tensor networks algorithms to study electrical transport generated by incident light coupled to a Boundary-driven Open Quantum System with the aim of optimizing rectification behavior.
