Self-introduction: Duc Truyen Le

Hi, I’m Truyen (チュエン), or you can call me Le (レ). I joined iTHEMS, RIKEN, in October 2025 under the IPA Doctoral Program. Before studying in Japan, I pursued my undergraduate studies in theoretical physics at Vietnam National University, followed by a Master’s degree in High Energy Physics at National Tsing Hua University. My passion lies in mathematical physics, particularly in applying mathematical tools to deepen our understanding of fundamental physics and other scientific domains.

In the advent of rapid quantum computing development, I joined Professor Masazumi Honda’s lab, where I am working on quantum algorithms for quantum field theory. My research focuses on developing quantum algorithms for high-energy physics models and investigating phenomenological processes where classical approaches reach their limits. In the long term, I aim to extend these quantum methods to interdisciplinary applications across science.

Beyond research, I enjoy board games, movies, sports, and exploring different cultures and histories. I am excited to exchange ideas with colleagues, broaden my perspective through cross-disciplinary learning, and contribute to this vibrant research community.
