FQXi Workshop
Quantum Sequential Measurements and Complexity
|
Scientific aims:
In quantum information processing, sequential measurements have recently attracted increasing
attention, due to their importance for quantum contextuality and measurement-based quantum
computation, but also due to their experimental feasibility. On the other hand, the analysis of time
series is a central problem in complexity theory, where many tools are available. This workshop should
bring together researchers from different fields with the aim to understand better the structure of
quantum sequential measurements, their correlations and complexity. The workshop will be informal
with around 25 participants so that enough time for collaborations and discussions is guaranteed.
Topics include the characterization of sequential quantum correlations, hidden Markov models,
\epsilon-machines, time-series analysis, and quantum contextuality.
