[Q]uantum information, [Q]uantum
optics, and [Q]uantum
many-body theory
meeting in the Berlin-Brandenburg area
We schedule regular
informal
meetings on topics of quantum information theory - including abstract
and mathematical work - quantum optics in theory and experiment, and
ramifications in quantum many-body systems, including strongly
correlated systems.
It is the purpose of these meetings to
foster a local community in the
Berlin-Brandenburg area (U Potsdam,
TU Berlin, FU Berlin, HU Berlin, Paul-Drude-Institute, Wissenschaftskolleg)
on the above fairly wide range of
research areas, to identify possible areas of joint work, and to keep
members updated on new directions of research and novel results. Quantum
information science is meant to be the link and joining element between
the above research topics. The range of possible topics is deliberately
kept quite wide for the first meetings; focus areas will then be
discussed.
The meetings are meant to be informal. Brief reports on unfinished
work, on open questions, or on promising research directions are highly
encouraged. Blackboard talks are just as much encouraged as powerpoint
or keynote presentations are. Reported
research does not necessarily have to be own research: Reviews on
relevant topics are highly welcome as well. People giving talks are
warned that the level of expertise on a given research topic may vary
within the audience.
Everybody is welcome. We plan to keep the format informal, and to
schedule sufficient time for informal blackboard discussions in small
groups. Also, the meetings will regularly be ending in a respective
local pub.
For further information about these
meetings, or if you would like to be included in the mailing list,
