Welcome to my personal website! I'm Ali Assem Mahmoud, a mathematician and educator, who enjoys offering mathematical solutions to problems in Quantum Physics, Engineering, or Computer Science. I have a PhD in Combinatorics and Optimization from the University of Waterloo, and have held postdoctoral positions at the University of Ottawa, the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, and the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo (IQC). I now work in the Quantum Computing team of NRC, the National Research Council of Canada.
