Academic Genealogy, Google Scholar

Advisor to Boston University Center for Philosophy and History of Science
Affiliate of the Rafik B. Hariri Institute for Computing and Computational Science

 

Areas of Publication:
Quantum Information, Foundations of Quantum Theory,
Computer Science, Philosophy of Science, Genetics

Academic profile:
Professor Jaeger carries out research in quantum theory, quantum information and computing,
the history and philosophy of physics, and mathematics. He developed quantum entanglement
theory and technology in the DARPA Quantum Network Testbed Project and, later, designed
a high-rate quantum cryptographic system for the global scale as part of the Quiness program.
He has authored a number of monographs, edited multi-disciplinary books and conference
proceedings, and has written many journal articles, book chapters, and two patents (see above).
