Quantum Information & Many-Body Theory

Welcome to the QIT-group homepage! The group is affiliated to the QUANTOP center for quantumoptics and funded by the Danish Natural Science Research Council (FNU). Both, homepage and group are still under construction ;-)

Research:
  • Quantum Information Theory (QIT): seeks to coin the apparent paradoxes of quantum mechanics into applications and develops an information theory (à la Shannon) based on the rules of quantum mechanics.
  • Quantum Many-Body Physics (QMP): The blessing of QIT is the curse of QMP - the notorious complexity of large quantum systems. We try to link these two fields,  develop new tools for tackling their problems and (if there is a reason for failing along this line) aim at exploiting the intrinsic complexity for information processing purposes.
  • Mathematical Physics: Our work focuses on general concepts and aims at mathematically rigorous proofs and clarifying logical structures.
Publications of the group on the arXiv and as pdf. Respective talks and collaborators. Collection of review articles on related topics and things worth reading on any topic.

Seminar (every Wed. 13:00, jointly with the Theoretical Quantum Optics group)    

Lecture (notes) on quantum channels (Tue 10:00-11:30 Aud. C)

Conferences organized by us (and others):

  • Theoretical aspects of tensor networks states (UC Madrid, 15-18 Oct.08)
  • New Frontiers in Quantum Information Science (Haereus-Seminar, 3-6 Nov.08, Germany)
  • COQUIT workshop on atomic ensembles (NBI Copenhagen, 22-24 Jul 09)
  • Quantum Information Theory (Mittag-Leffler Institute, Stockholm, Sep 1-Dec 15, 2010)
