Mátyás Koniorczyk received his PhD degree in 2003 under the supervision of József Janszky in the doctoral school of University of Szeged, in the framework of its subprogramme affiliated at University of Pécs. Initially he had been investigating the quantum information and quantum optical aspects of quantum teleportation. He spent two years in the group of Vladimír Bužek in Bratislava in the Research Centre of Quantum Information of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, as a research fellow of the CONQUEST Marie Curie network. Between 2005 and 2020 he was an instructor of University of Pécs, teaching subjects of theoretical physics, applied mathematics, and computer science. In 2012 he received a habilitation degree. Besides quantum information theory his research interest turned towards applied mathematics and operations research. His current research areas are nonclassical correlations and their game theoretic aspects, the application of quantum annealing in optimization problems, and the information theory of dynamical systems.
