Biographie
Former student of the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Cachan, Frédéric Magniez is graduated both in mathematics (agrégation) and computer science (PhD). His PhD thesis was awarded by the Association Française d’Informatique Théorique in 2000. He then became a CNRS researcher and worked at the Université Paris Sud, before joining the Institut de Recherche en Informatique Fondamentale (IRIF) at the Université Paris Cité in 2010. His research focuses on the design and analysis of randomized algorithms for processing large data sets, as well as the development of quantum computing, particularly algorithms, cryptography and its interactions with physics. Professor at the École Polytechnique from 2003 to 2015, Frédéric Magniez co-initiated the first course dedicated to quantum computing of the institution. In 2006, he founded and led the national working group for quantum computing, that currently brings together 20 research groups. From 2013 to 2017, he ran the Algorithms and Complexity group, whose research in quantum computing is recognized worldwide. In 2015, he became Deputy Director of the Fondation des Sciences Mathématiques de Paris, before taking over as Director of IRIF in 2018 until 2022. Professor at the Collège de France from 2020 to 2021, holder of the Annual Chair in Informatics and Digital Sciences, he taught quantum algorithms.
