Career

Samuel L. Braunstein and Arun K. Pati, Quantum Information with Continuous Variables, Kluwer
Academic Publisher, The Netherland, 2003.

Originally from the state of Orissa in India, Pati obtained

his PhD from the University of Bombay, Mumbai. In
1989, he took up a position as a theoretical physicist
in the Theoretical Physics Division, BARC, Mumbai,
India. From 1998-2000, he was a visiting scientist and
an EPSRC fellow at the University of Wales, Bangor,
UK. He was a visiting scientist at the Institute of Physics,
Bhubaneswar, India from 2001-2010. Currently, he is a
Professor of Quantum Information at the Harish Chandra
Research Institute, Allahabad, India since 2011.[1] He is
honored with K. P. Chair Professor at Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China during the period 2013-2015. [2]

Along with Samuel L. Braunstein, he proved the quantum

no-deleting theorem. His other important collaborative
work with Braunstein includes the quantum no-hiding
theorem. This has applications that include quantum teleportation, quantum state randomization, thermalization
and the black hole information loss paradox. The nohiding theorem has been experimentally tested and this
is a clear demonstration of the conservation of quantum
information. He also discovered the remote state preparation protocol in quantum information theory, which has
been experimentally tested by several groups. He along
with other scientists introduced the concept of geometric phase for mixed states. This has been experimentally
measured by several groups around the world.[3]
