On the characterisation of quantum correlations: quantum steering and entanglement

Operational Quantum Average-Case Distance

Date: 2022-03-28
Time: 14:15
Location: Quantum Chaos and Quantum Information (Jagiellonian University)
seminar
Speaker: Filip Maciejewski (CFT PAN Warszawa) Abstract We introduce operational distance measures between quantum states, measurements, and channels based on their average-case distinguishability. To this end, we analyze the average Total Variation Distance (TVD) between statistics of quantum protocols in which quantum objects are intertwined with random circuits and subsequently measured in a computational basis.

Examples of standing gravitational waves in general relativity

Date: 2022-03-25
Time: 11:00
Location: ICTQT room 42
ICTQT Seminar
Speaker: Sebastian Szybka  (Jagiellonian University) Abstract Standing waves are a quite common phenomenon in physics.They are well understood in linear theories. In Einstein's gravity, which is a nonlinear theory, the lack of superposition principle complicates studies. I will present exact solutions to Einstein equations that correspond to standing gravitational waves. They provide useful toy-models that […]

Physics and Metaphysics of Wigner’s Friends

Date: 2022-03-25
Time: 12:15
Location: IFTIA Seminar
seminar
Speaker: Marcin Markiewicz  (ICTQT) Abstract Recently there appeared many works on modified Wigner's Friend paradoxes, which suggest that quantum theory cannot consistently describe the scenario with many observers. In this presentation I will show an alternative approach to this problem, which indicates that the paradoxes are in fact apparent, and the source of confusion is […]

Wave and particle realism in quantum delayed-choice experiments

Date: 2022-03-23
Time: 14:15
Location: ICTQT Seminar (room 45)
ICTQT Seminar
Speaker: Pedro Dieguez (ICTQT) Abstract Wheeler’s delayed-choice experiment, a scenario wherein a classical apparatus, typically an interferometer, is settled only after the quantum system has entered it, has corroborated the complementarity principle. However, the quantum version of Wheeler's delayed-choice experiment has challenged the robustness of this principle. Based on the visibility at the output of […]

Speeding up Learning Quantum States with the help of Group Equivariant Convolutional Quantum Ansätze

Date: 2022-03-04
Time: 12:15
Location: https://zoom.us/j/93636884042?pwd=TksrY0xaMEczY2k0RDRqajFMV1lxdz09
ICTQT Seminar
Speaker: Sergii Strelchuk (Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, University of Cambridge) Abstract In this talk, I will discuss one of the key properties which are responsible for the unreasonable success of classical convolutional neural networks – equivariance. It states that if the input to the neural network is shifted, then its activations translate accordingly. […]

Searching for dark matter with a global network of optical atomic clocks

Date: 2021-10-22
Time: 14:15
Location: IFTIA seminar room & https://zoom.us/j/7763535903?pwd=Q1VwQWhHME9GcjBJaUhEZWoxazhDdz09
ICTQT Seminar
Speaker: Beata Zjawin(ICTQT, UG) Abstract Observations at astronomical scales provide a strong evidence for existence of dark matter. The nature of dark matter composition, however, is still not known. Lack of detections of dark matter particles triggered multiple alternative theories. In this seminar, I will focus on dark matter candidates in form of scalar fields […]
