We delve into both classical and quantum regimes, studying linear and nonlinear phenomena in complex photonic systems. Our focus is on Hermitian and non-Hermitian photonics systems, including nonlinear multimode and multicore fibers, coupled optical waveguides and resonators arrays, silica, III-V semiconductors, photorefractive and liquid crystals, nanocolloids, and polymers based systems, as well as photonic topological insulators.

Key Research Areas:

• Nonlinear Optics: We investigate the nonlinear behavior of light, exploring phenomena such as self-focusing, cross-phase modulation, modulation instability, solitons, pattern formation and parametric processes to mention a few.

• Light-Matter Interactions: We study the interactions between light and various materials and system at the semi-classical and quantum level to understand and control their optical properties.

• Optical Thermodynamics: We investigate the chaotic light dynamics in nonlinear multimoded photonic systems with the tools of statistical mechanics and thermodynamics. 

• Topological and non-Hermitian Photonics: We explore the unique properties of open and close system including photonic topological insulators and their potential applications in robust light transport and quantum information processing.

• Computational Photonics: We employ advanced computational techniques to simulate and analyze complex photonic systems, providing valuable insights into their behavior.
