Short description of research profile

Research group is focusing on tobacco control law from perspective of seaside regions. Seaside regions have their specific issues in tobacco control. Mostly they are touristic regions with political and legal tendency to loosen tobacco control regulations and its enforcement which are seen as something what may discourage tourists. These regions have also bigger crossborder movement which is associated with smuggled tobacco supply. This causes greater public health threat with the need for more comprehensive legal approach.

Short description of research profile

The subject of our research is the application of methods of modern functional analysis, the theory of operator algebras and linear algebra to the description of physical phenomena. In particular, we study

  • the notion of quantum entanglement,
  • entanglement witnesses,
  • quantum correlations,
  • steering inequalities.

Our goal is also to describe the structure of positive mappings on matrix algebras. In particular we are focused on the problem of NPT bound entanglement.
