Achim Rosch and Simon Trebst
Wed 12:15-13:45
seminar room E0.03 | Institute for Theoretical Physics (new building)
The seminar will start on Wed April 5th, 2023.
Overview
The seminar is motivated by recent progresses in the field of quantum computing. In this seminar, we focus on concepts with a link to solid state physics and, more generally, reflect on the role of measurement in complex quantum systems. For example, entanglement has developed into a central concept across many different fields of physics and quantum field theory. And only recently, we start to understand how measurements can be used not only to destroy but also create complex entanglement patterns.
Prerequisites
For some talks previous knowledge in Quantum Field Theory is useful, but several topics can also be covered with a basic background in quantum mechanics.
