Kenyi Takagui-Perez

I am a physicist turned ML engineer. My research spans condensed matter theory, ionospheric physics, and machine learning.

I completed my M.Sc. in Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics at the Balseiro Institute and the Bariloche Atomic Center, advised by Armando Aligia. My thesis studied the effect of Coulomb repulsion on Majorana zero modes in quantum-dot–superconducting-nanowire hybrid systems, supported by a CNEA Fellowship.

Earlier, I worked with Yoshiharu Kohayakawa at the University of São Paulo on nonlocality and graph parameters in quantum information, and with Pablo Bueno from CERN on holographic entanglement entropy.

Effect of interatomic repulsion on Majorana zero modes in a coupled quantum-dot–superconducting-nanowire hybrid system

Kenyi Takagui-Perez, Armando Aligia

We study the low-energy eigenstates of a topological superconductor wire modeled by a Kitaev chain connected to a quantum dot, using an unrestricted Hartree-Fock approximation to analyze the effect of Coulomb repulsion on Majorana end states.

A note on an inversion algorithm for vertical ionograms for the prediction of plasma frequency profiles

Kenyi Takagui-Perez, Marco Milla

A refined multi-quasi-parabolic method for modeling the E and F ionospheric layers, addressing inaccuracies in prior work and providing a more robust algorithm for plasma frequency profile prediction from ionograms.
