The Theory of Computer Science (TCS) Group does research on the theoretical foundations of computer science. The aim is to seek greater understanding of fundamental computational techniques and their inherent limitations. The TCS group forms an integral part of a vibrant community of TCS researchers in Amsterdam.
Check out Koen’s book about Introduction to Quantum Computing for Business, an open-access book that covers the use cases and practical impact of quantum technology, without resorting to complex mathematics of physics.
Catch Nic share insights about cryptography and zero-knowledge in https://ivi.uva.nl/content/news/2025/06/keeping-your-identity-safe-online.html.
We are very happy to announce that Florian Speelman has switched groups within IvI to become a member of the TCS group. His research interests include quantum communication, quantum cryptography and complexity theory.
Divya Ravi has switched groups within IvI to become a member of the TCS group. Her research interests in Secure Multi-Party Computation fit well our current expertise. For the coming 5 years, Divya will be working on the new NWO Gravitation project “Challenges in Cyber Security (CiCS)”.
John van de Wetering, assistant professor in the TCS group has been awarded a personal VENI grant from NWO, congratulations!!
