Conference on Quantum Information Science

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The proposed conference will bring together people working in the two areas, includingleading experts in the both fields, in order to explore the possibility of transferring theknowledge accumulated in quantum many-body physics into the area of quantumalgorithms and back, and also to attract more physicists to the problem of quantumcomputation.Intellectual MeritThe merits of holding this conference are determined by the revolutionary role ofquantum computing, which should provide means for solving problems that may not besolved with ordinary computers. New breakthroughs in quantum computing are expectedfrom exchange of ideas and results obtained in relevant areas of classical and quantumcomputational algorithms and quantum many-body physics, which is closely related toquantum computing. In turn, the fast progress in quantum computing should significantlyenrich many-body physics and lead to new technologies.Broader ImpactThe broader impact of the conference comes from its truly interdisciplinary scope. Bringingtogether world-leading experts in computer science and physics should dramaticallyextend the scope of the studies on quantum computing and attract more scientists to thisarea. Participation of students and postdoctoral research associates will help disseminatethe knowledge among younger generation of scientists.
