About the authors
Masahito Hayashi has received his Ph.D. at Kyoto University, Department of Mathematics, Graduate School of Science, in 1999. Between 1998 and 2000 he was a Research Fellow of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science followed by three years of research at the Laboratory for Mathematical Neuroscience (Amari's Laboratory), Brain Science Institute, RIKEN. From 2003 to 2006 he held the position of a Research Manager at ERATO, Quantum Computation and Information Project, Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST). During that period he oversaw the ERATO Quantum Computation and Information Project, which at the time was the largest research group for quantum information and computation in Japan. Afterwards he became a Group Leader, Quantum Information Theory Group, ERATO-SORST Quantum Computation and Information Project. In 2007 he joined Tohoku University as Associate Professor at the Graduate School of Information Sciences, Tohoku University. In 2012 he became a Full Professor of Nagoya University, Graduate School of Mathematics.
Masahito Hayashi is one of the founders of the Asian Conference on Quantum Information Science (AQIS) conference series, which is a major international conference series on quantum information and computation. He has served as a referee for numerous prestigious international journals.
