Ning Bao

Ning Bao is an Assistant Professor in the Departments of Physics and Mathematics at Northeastern University's College of Science. His research bridges high energy theory and quantum information science, focusing on topics such as holographic correspondences, quantum entanglement classification, and quantum algorithm development. He explores the interplay between quantum information principles and fundamental physics concepts like black hole thermodynamics and spacetime geometry. His work often involves cutting-edge techniques from machine learning and applied mathematics to address questions in quantum gravity and condensed matter systems.

Key research interests include the information-theoretic properties of black holes, entanglement structure in holographic systems, and the application of quantum information tools to machine learning. He contributes to foundational studies in quantum error correction, entanglement wedge reconstruction, and the ER=EPR conjecture. His articles span topics from AdS/CFT correspondence to quantum cellular automata, reflecting his interdisciplinary approach to theoretical physics.

Bao’s research is supported by contributions to holographic entropy inequalities, tensor network models, and the exploration of quantum algorithms through frameworks like classical shadows and reinforcement learning. His work has advanced understanding of entanglement in gauge theories, quantum complexity measures, and the interplay between geometry and quantum information in gravitational systems.
