Boris Tsirelson, the Russian-Israeli mathematician who pioneered research in quantum nonlocality, passed away in January, 2020. Among his contributions to quantum information theory stand out the characterization of quantum XOR games, the discovery of self-testing and, of course, the famous Tsirelson bound.
To honor Tsirelson's legacy, the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) Vienna is organizing the one-week workshop on quantum nonlocality Tsirelson 2SQRT2.
The workshop will take place in Vienna, in person, on April 4th-8th, 2022. Confirmed invited speakers are:
Antonio Acín (ICFO Barcelona, Spain)
Lluís Masanes (University College London, UK)
Stefano Pironio (Université libre de Bruxelles, Belgium)
Sandu Popescu (University of Bristol, UK)
Valerio Scarani (National University of Singapore)
William Slofstra (University of Waterloo, Canada)
Nacho Villanueva (Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain)
Tamás Vértesi (Institute for Nuclear Research, Hungary)
Reinhard Werner (Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany)
In addition, there will be 22 contributed talks, which will be soon announced in the 2SQRT2 website.
There is no conference fee, but attendance to the conference dinner costs 50 euros. We can offer travel support to a limited number of students. The registration deadline is March, 6th.
