Peter Bierhorst

Peter Bierhorst serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of New Orleans.

His academic credentials include:

• PhD in Mathematics, Tulane University
• MS in Statistics, Tulane University
• AB in Mathematics, Harvard University

Dr. Bierhorst's research integrates probability theory and statistics to advance quantum information science, with seminal contributions to experimental analysis protocols in quantum physics and device-independent cryptographic systems. His investigations extend to geometric frameworks of quantum probability distributions and multipartite nonlocality phenomena, reflecting interdisciplinary rigor at the intersection of mathematics and quantum computing. He actively mentors emerging researchers through current openings for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows.

Dr. Bierhorst maintains active recruitment for research positions, emphasizing collaborative opportunities in quantum information theory and statistical methodology development.
