Bachelor and Master of Physics - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais -, Ph.D. condidate - Centre for Quantum Technologies, National University of Singapore - , under supervision of Prof. Dr. Valerio Scarani. My main research interests are the foundations of quantum mechanics - in particular, entanglement and nonlocality theories - and their applications on quantum information and computation theory.

Quantum theory is one of the most controversial and well succeeded scientific theories ever developed. Controversial because there is no consensus regarding the physical meaning of its most fundamental objects, a century after its creation; and well succeeded because its predictions have been confirmed with unprecedented precision. A research field that is referred as foundations of quant…
Bell's theorem -- one of the most important results of the foundations of quantum theory and philosophy of science -- states that quantum theory is inconsistent with physical models that obey the local causality hypothesis. Originally, nonlocal aspects of quantum theory were investigated in the seminal scenario proposed in 1935 by Einstein, Podolski, and Rosen, and in direct generalizatio…
Quantum systems can exhibit non-classical behavior in different ways; two of the strongest and most well-known and studied are Bell non-locality and Kochen-Specker contextuality, both related to supra-classical correlations between measurement results performed on the system. Behind these phenomena there are, as expected, intrinsically quantum concepts, such as entanglement and measuremen…
Entanglement and Bell nonlocality are two distinct manifestations, despite intrinsically correlated, of the nonclassicality of composite quantum systems. It is well known that entanglement is necessary for nonlocality, however, and surprisingly, there are entangled states of composite quantum systems that are incapable of showing nonlocality. Such states do not have a closed description a…
Entanglement and nonlocality are intrinsically related concepts, parts of a complex relationship that still requires better understanding. One of the scenarios that are yet to be better explored in the investigation of this relationship is the one that involves many copies of a quantum system, shared in a network. In such scenarios, it is possible to activate the nonlocality of entangled …
An interesting way of investigating the foundations of quantum theory is by means of the correlations allowed by it between the results of measurements performed on space-like separated systems. Such correlations my present a nonclassical phenomenon known as Bell nonlocality, but, interestingly, the set of nonlocal correlations allowed by quantum theory is very specific and special. There…

This project aims to explore fundamental issues associated with quantum correlations and their different characterizations in measurement scenarios. Based on recent results, we intend to explore how the joint observation of Bell nonlocality in multipartite scenarios can be related to the indistinguishability of identicalparticles and macroscopic systems.

Bell's theorem shows that local measurements of an entangled state create nonlocal quantum correlations, a fundamental signature of quantum physics. Bell inequalities provide standard methods to detect such nonlocal correlations, and constitute a powerful toolbox with various applications. More generally, we can see Bell's theorem as the impossibility of providing a classical causal expla…
