Quantum Physics and Geometry
July 4-6, 2017, Levico Terme (Trento, Italy)
http://www.science.unitn.it/~carusott/QUANTUMGEO17/index.html
In this workshop we plan to explore possible interdisciplinary links between quantum information and geometry and contribute to the creation of a community of researchers trying to export advanced mathematical concepts to this new applicative field. The objective is to convey to a single event leading experts from the two fields, so to explore interdisciplinary connections and contribute establishing an active and long-lasting community.
Registration by April 15, 2017, micheletti(AT)fbk.eu .
There might be limited funds still available for PhD-students that missed the pre-registration deadline. To apply for them e.mail to Augusto Micheletti (CIRM Secretary) micheletti(AT)fbk.eu as soon as possible attaching a brief CV.
In addition to the invited talks session there will be round tables open to all participants. There will also be the possibility to hang posters in the main hall for the all period of the workshop (in case of interest in presenting one, please e.mail in advance to the organizing committee and Cc Augusto Micheletti).
