Hi Quantum People,
I would like to notice my organizing workshop on the discrete time
quantum walk held at Tokyo next March. The oral deadline is the end of
this month. As far as I know, the specific topical workshop will be
first held. Therefore, if you are interested in this, please contribute
this workshop.
Best wishes,
Yutaka

Title: International Workshop on Mathematical and Physical Foundations
of Discrete Time Quantum Walk
http://www.th.phys.titech.ac.jp/~shikano/dtqw/
Date: March 29th - 30th, 2011
Place: Tokyo Institute of Technology Oh-okayama Campus, Tokyo, Japan
http://www.titech.ac.jp/english/about/campus/index.html
Aim:
What is probability and stochastic process in quantum mechanics? To
study the foundations of the stochastic process in quantum mechanics,
the discrete time quantum walk (DTQW), which is a quantum analogue of
the random walk, may be useful. This has recently been the hot research
field, especially in quantum information science, and been
experimentally realized. This workshop will bring the theoretical
researchers in the DTQW. While this workshop is focused on the
theoretical side, we also welcome experimentalists. We take the
advantages of special opportunities to invite founders of DTQW. The
organizers strongly encourage young researchers to actively join us to
this workshop.
Workshop Scopes:
1. Mathematical Foundations of Discrete Time Quantum Walk
1-1. Stochastic Process in Quantum Probability Theory
1-2. Weak Limit Theorem
1-3. Classification between Localization and Delocalization
2. Physical Foundations of Discrete Time Quantum Walk
2-1. Mapped to Schroedinger equation and Dirac equation
2-2. Non-local effect, entanglement, and super-oscillation
2-3. Application to Quantum Information Science
Important Dates:
Oral Contribution (8 slots): December 31th, 2010.
Poster Contribution (20 slots): February 28th, 2011.
The participants will be limited to 70 people.
