Mohammad Ansari is a theoretical physicist expert in quantum physics. In 2006, he proposed that quantum gravitational effects can be seen on top of Hawking radiation of black hole.[1] He was the first winner of John Brodie prize from the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics.[2]

In 2015, Ansari and Nazarov proposed a quantum version of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem in quantum heat engines that is an exact correspondence between Rényi entropy and Full Counting Statistics (FCS) of energy transfers.[3]

Ansari has recently reported a novel symmetry in quantum computation that helps to liberate quantum bits from a fundamental parasitic interactions. In 2020, experimenters from IBM Watson Research Center have verified the symmetry and eliminated the redundant interactions between qubits.[4]
