Speaker: Moises Bermejo Moran (Jagiellonian University) Abstract I will review different kind of uncertainty relations and their significance in Quantum Information, e.g. for entanglement and non-locality characterization. Then I will explain how to obtain (theoretically tight) bounds for these relations using the framework of state polynomial optimization.

Speaker: Dominik Šafránek (Institute for Basic Science, South Korea) Abstract I will introduce a protocol which allows to unitarily extract work out of sources of quantum states characterized only by a single type of coarse measurement. This defines a new notion of extractable work, which we call observational ergotropy, because it is directly related to […]

Speaker: Some Bhattacharya (ICTQT) Abstract Composing elementary physical systems is one of the most sober and important affairs in the foundations of science, art and every other meaningful endeavours of life. Of course quantum formalism provides us with a recipe for composing multipartite systems. But we would like to explore the ‘what if’ proposals (however […]

Speaker: Martin Plávala (Universität Siegen) Abstract This talk begins with the problem whether entanglement exists in all non-classical operational theories. This problem was already considered as a mathematical problem by George Barker in the 70' in the context of ordered vector spaces; here we discuss some aspects of the proof that entanglement is a generic […]

Speaker: Dr Marcin Płodzień (ICFO - The Institute of Photonic Sciences) Abstract Because of challenges in fault-tolerant quantum computing, the main goal for quantum technologies in the next decade is to generate, characterize, and validate massively correlated quantum states. Non-classical correlations, namely entanglement and Bell correlations, are fundamental properties of the quantum many-body systems and […]

Speaker: Jan Głowacki (Center for Theoretical Physics, PAS) Abstract I will advertise a way to think about intersecting principles of relativity with the operational approach to quantum physics building on the ideas of the quantum reference frames program. After briefly explaining the need for alternatives/extensions/clarifications of the QFT formalism, I will start with a conceptual […]

Speaker: Ravi Kunjwal (Centre for Quantum Information and Communication (QuIC) of the Université libre de Bruxelles (ULB), Brussels, Belgium) Abstract The fact that quantum theory radically departs from 'classical lines of thought' is a critical driver for its applications in quantum information and computation. A famous example of this radical departure---this nonclassicality---is entanglement. Bell's theorem […]

Speaker: Alexandre Orthey (CTP PAS) Abstract To better understand the emergence of physical reality in quantum systems during the measurement procedure, we need a model that can interpolate between weak measurements and strong (projective) measurements in systems of any dimension. Although the quantum logic gates to perform that on qubits are known [e.g., A. Touil […]

Speaker: Wojciech Roga ( ロガヴォイチェフ) Keio University, Japan

Speaker: Rafael Freitas dos Santos (Center for Theoretical Physics PAS) Abstract In this talk, I'll present a concept of nonclassicality exploring properties of contextuality and nonlocality. Quantum contextuality is one of the most intriguing properties of quantum theory and provides a notion of nonclassicality, while nonlocality is a special case of contextuality when the physical […]
