Workshop Quantum Information and the Frontiers of Quantum Theory

Lyon, June 27th-June 30th

The main theme of this workshop is about questioning the frontiers of quantum theory with a quantum information perspective. In particular, we plan to cover topics such as
  • spacetime and quantum theory (in particular information in black holes and quantum clocks),
  • observer physics (in particular thought experiments involving quantum observers, emergence of classicality)
  • mathematical theories beyond quantum (in particular generalized probabilistic theories).

    Invited speakers

  • Alexandre Feller (Lille)
  • Jonas Haferkamp (Berlin)
  • Ravi Kunjwal (Brussels)
  • Nuriya Nurgalieva (Zurich)
  • Yihui Quek (Berlin)
  • Daniel Stilck França (Lyon)
  • David Sutter (Zurich)
  • Freek Witteveen (Amsterdam)
  • Mischa Woods (Zurich/Grenoble)
