Scope:
This workshop will be the successor of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Seefeld Workshops on Quantum Information
Theory, which were held in 2012, 2014, and 2016 respectively
(http://www.uibk.ac.at/th-physik/qi-seefeld2012/,
http://www.uibk.ac.at/th-physik/qi-seefeld2014/,
http://www.uibk.ac.at/th-physik/qi-seefeld2016/).
The main focus of this series of workshops is on quantum information topics such as
entanglement theory, non-locality, quantum measurements and tomography, quantum metrology,
entanglement in condensed matter systems, etc., as well as some selected topics in quantum computation.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers working on quantum information theory.
The schedule of the workshop is such that there is enough time for many informal discussions.
A number of prominent speakers have confirmed their participation and we anticipate an
interesting and stimulating meeting.
Venue:
Seefeld in Tirol http://www.seefeld.com/en is a charming
traditional Tyrolean village. It is located in the Alps about 20 km northwest of Innsbruck.
Besides being a prominent skiing resort in winter, its hundreds of kilometers of hiking and
mountain bike trails and the Wildsee lake make Seefeld a popular Summer destination as well.
The workshop will be held at Hotel Schönruh
http://www.schoenruh-seefeld.com/en/, a
modern hotel which offers nice working facilities combined with relaxation in its wellness and
spa area.
Program:
Few talks will be scheduled to leave plenty of room for discussions and outdoor activities.
Approximately two invited plenary talks (each of 1 hour) and four invited short talks (30min)
will be given per day. In addition we plan to have an extensive poster session and we strongly
encourage participants to present a poster about their current research.
Support:
The workshop is sponsored by the SFB project "Foundations and applications of quantum science"
(FoQus) and the Institute of Theoretical Physics, University of Innsbruck.
Important dates:
Due to space limitations, the number of participants will be limited.
