Introduction to quantum resource theories (2)

One of the central goals of quantum information theory is to quantitatively clarify the relationship between the performance of quantum information processing and the valuable quantum features that underlie it. In this lecture, we will discuss quantum resource theories, a framework that provides a useful approach to this question. By presenting concrete examples—starting with entanglement theory, the most representative resource theory—as well as recent research results, we will see how perspectives and tools from information theory enable the quantification of quantum resources and the characterization of their convertibility. Beyond entanglement theory, we plan to discuss other key settings such as quantum thermodynamics, resource theory of asymmetry, and quantum magic—relevant resource in fault-tolerant quantum compuation. The overall aim of this lecture is to provide new analytical viewpoints that can be applied to a wide range of systems and quantum information processing tasks.

While we do not plan to change the overall start and end times for each day, the detailed lecture schedule is subject to change. The intensive course will be held over three days. Please register for the course using the form.
The registration deadline is May 7 (Thu).
Please note that the registration form is the same for all three days, so you only need to register once.
