Theory

The Groups research areas are Quantum Information Theory and its interface with many-body physics and quantum optics. Specifically, the Group has interest in the field of quantum information science is diversified in to various topics, which broadly include:

1. Characterizing and quantifying multipartite quantum correlations in finite as well as infinite quantum systems.

2. Connecting multipartite quantum correlations to different quantum information processing tasks.

History: Our group started out at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg in 2001 (though it has roots to the Helsinki Institute of Physics from 1997), and relocated to the Institute of Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo in 2006.

Our position in the research landscape: Our group explores the interface between quantum communication theory and quantum optical implementations.

Our group deals with theoretical and computational atomic, molecular, and optical (AMO) physics with primary interest in the physics of Bose-Einstein condensates.

The freshly created group of Giulia Ferrini investigates quantum information protocols with continuous variables, with a special focus on quantum computation and quantum advantage, from the theoretical point of view. Strong collaborations with the group of Göran Johansson and the one of Per Delsing and Jonas Bylander, dealing with superconducting Josephson junctions at Chalmers (theory and experiments respectively), are being developed.

Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech) is a unique English-speaking international graduate only research university located in Skolkovo, just outside of Moscow. Established in collaboration with M.I.T., Skoltech is an integral part of the Skolkovo Innovation Center that comprises a complete high-tech city with a number of international R&D centers and start-up incubators, several of which are focused on quantum technology.

Skoltech's Quantum Software Initiative is lead by Jacob Biamonte.

QUANTUM RESOURCES OF COMPOSITE OPEN SYSTEMS FOR APPLICATIONS IN QUANTUM INFORMATION

We are a young research group within the Centre for Theoretical Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics at Queen’s University Belfast. We work on quantum information processing, quantum optics, quantum thermodynamics, and the physics of many-body quantum systems. Our interests are many and quite variegate: the group offers a widespread expertise in many topics!

We collaborate with experimentalists and theorists alike: some of us are even able to enter a lab without making any damage! Our international dimension is reflected in the make-up of the team.

Our group is pleased to announce the master’s programme: Quantum Information Technologies The main goal of this programme is to educate and train highly-qualified specialists who will be able to solve complex problems related to the transmission, storage, and processing of data using quantum-information technologies. Furthermore, graduates of the programme will be able to use cutting-edge technologies and directly take part in their development.
