Greg Rosenthal

I'm a postdoc with Tom Gur and Animesh Datta at University of Cambridge and University of Warwick. Previously I was a computer science PhD student at University of Toronto with Henry Yuen and Benjamin Rossman, and before that I was a math major and computer science minor at Cornell University. My research interests are in computational complexity theory and related areas, including quantum circuit complexity and boolean function analysis.

Visits

I attended portions of the Meta-Complexity and Lower Bounds in Computational Complexity programs at the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing. I visited Henry Yuen at Columbia University in Fall 2022, and Tom Gur at University of Warwick in Summer 2022.

Other Activities

From Jan. 2018 to July 2019 I coordinated the weekly Cookiebreak for grad students in the University of Toronto computer science department. I played cello in orchestras at Toronto and Cornell and conducted the Cornell Eastern Music Ensemble. I also enjoy playing piano, board games, squash and basketball.
