Entanglement in Many-Body Systems: From Nuclei to Quantum Computers and Back

 

 

Organizers: Mari Carmen Banuls (Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics, Munich, Germany), Susan Coppersmith (University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia), Calvin Johnson (San Diego State University, California, USA) and Caroline Robin (Bielefeld University, Germany).

This workshop will be centered around the topic of entanglement in many-body systems relevant for and connected to NP. The goal is to advance exchanges of ideas and techniques between NP and other fields of many-body physics such as condensed matter, quantum chemistry or quantum field theories. These areas are already well advanced in the characterization and use of entanglement for the description of many-body systems, and in the development of experimental techniques for producing and detecting entangled states. The knowledge acquired in these fields can guide progress in the development of entanglement-driven methods for classical and quantum simulations of nuclei, and in the identification of experiments probing entanglement in nuclear systems. Vice versa, specificities of many-body NP techniques can potentially be useful for other fields, and QIS in general. The workshop will explore these different aspects.

IQuS workshops are designed to bring together a cross-disciplinary group of researchers, and provide an immersive environment to nurture discussion, collective brainstorming and initiate possible collaborations.  Following this spirit, we aim for a light schedule in term of talks and prioritize group discussions, in order to ensure exchanges of ideas and methods, and foster progress around the topic of entanglement in different fields of quantum many-body physics

Format and Scope:

The workshop has a lightly-planned schedule, with two talk sessions per day and plenty of time for interaction and collaboration between participants. In addition, there will be focussed “rump sessions” throughout both weeks. Reflecting the diverse (scientific) background of participants and the interdisciplinary scope, these will allow us to interconnect,  identify common goals and learn from each other strategies to reach them. Feel free to send us your expectations and suggestions beforehand, crobin@physik.uni-bielefeld.de. Or, to prepare in advance, let other participants know that you are excited to learn about what common interest you may share.
