I’m a graduate student in the Physics Dept. — NCHU, intrigued by how quantum mechanics reshapes our understanding of information. My research explores quantum correlations in multipartite systems and device-independent scenarios, using semidefinite programming to uncover hidden quantum properties that were once thought impossible.
Outside the world of quantum weirdness, I spend time making questionable progress on the violin and piano, capturing photons through lenses, and collecting books with the noble intention of reading them all (someday). Semidefinite programs may bend my brain, but badminton usually helps snap it back.
Hi, I'm Muhammad Amru Al-Amin, a graduate student in the Department of Physics at National Chung Hsing University in Taiwan, fortunate to be advised by Shin-Liang Chen. My research broadly focuses on quantum information theory, with a particular interest in fundamental quantum correlations, often motivated by their applications in a device-independent framework.
Currently, I'm a member of the NCHU Quantum Information Group, working on problems related to Bell's nonlocality and measurement incompatibility in multipartite systems (quantum networks), using semidefinite programming and its relaxations. In 2024, I completed my master’s degree in this group with a thesis on bounding quantum correlations in bilocal networks via semidefinite relaxations .
I earned my undergraduate degree in the Department of Physics at Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember in Indonesia, where I worked with Agus Purwanto on quantum computing. My undergraduate thesis focused on applying the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm to a nuclear magnetic resonance-based quantum computer model, completed in 2021.
Outside of research, I attempt— often optimistically and occasionally successfully —to stay connected with a few personal passions: taking moody photographs that tend to retire early into digital folders, collecting books I’m convinced I’ll read (as soon as I finish the others), playing badminton with either a few of energy and questionable technique, and coaxing the violin and piano into producing sounds that bravely defy traditional melody. I’m also struggling (but refusing to quit!) to learn Traditional Mandarin Chinese (繁體中文) — a script as elegant as it is unforgiving to my handwriting. And while I’m not ethnically Chinese, but I do also go by the formal Mandarin name 何慕安 (Hé Mù'ān) — a thoughtful gift from my teacher, chosen for its grace and meaning.
This project explores quantum correlations in bilocal networks, where three parties are connected through two independent sources. Using semidefinite programming (SDP) and the Navascués-Pironio-Acín (NPA) hierarchy, the study confirms that quantum nonlocality can occur even between unconnected parties, recovering key limits such as the Tsirelson bound.
The method is extendable to networks with more than two independent sources, aiming to understand how quantum correlations behave in larger, more complex setups. This has practical relevance for future quantum communication and distributed computing technologies, where managing nonlocality across multi-source systems is essential.

Questions, ideas, or just a friendly hello? I’m always glad to hear from fellow explorers—especially those puzzled by quantum weirdness.
