Tristan Kraft

Tristan Kraft is a Researcher at the Chair of Quantum Algorithms and Applications, led by Prof. Barbara Kraus, within the Department of Physics at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). Based at James-Franck-Str. 1 in Garching bei München, he holds a doctorate (Dr. rer. nat.) from the University of Siegen and contributes to cutting-edge research in quantum information science.

His academic background includes:

• Dissertation (2020): 'Aspects of quantum resources: coherence, measurements, and network correlations' at the University of Siegen, Germany.

Dr. Kraft's research centers on Quantum Information Theory with emphasis on quantum device verification, foundations of quantum mechanics, and quantum network protocols. His work bridges theoretical frameworks with practical applications in quantum computing, particularly exploring resource theories and measurement incompatibility. Recent publications demonstrate deep engagement with quantum many-body systems and dissipation dynamics.

Analysis of his 2022-2025 publications reveals consistent focus on quantum information processing frontiers. Key trends include quantum network transformations using LOCC protocols, characterization of quantum resources in many-body systems, and foundational studies of incompatible measurements. His collaborative work with international teams addresses verification challenges in quantum devices and entanglement distribution.

Dr. Kraft has supervised student theses within TUM's quantum research ecosystem, though specific advisees are not named in available records. He actively collaborates within Prof. Kraus' chair, contributing to projects involving quantum simulation and algorithm development.

As a core member of the Chair of Quantum Algorithms and Applications, he participates in TUM's quantum research infrastructure alongside PostDocs like David Gunn and graduate researchers. The group maintains strong industry and academic partnerships focused on advancing quantum computing applications.
