Overview

The idea of quantum information provides us with a valuable framework to understand fundamental properties of quantum matter, as represented by computations using tensor networks and by applications of various entanglement measures. In the light of holographic duality in string theory, microscopic structures of quantum entanglement in many-body systems can be equivalently interpreted as geometric structures in gravitational spacetimes. Owing to recent developments, deep connections between quantum gravity and various aspects of quantum information theory, such as quantum entanglement, computational complexity, quantum error corrections, and quantum cryptography, have been discovered. In addition, these days, condensed matter experiments using various quantum simulators have been developing very rapidly. In this workshop, we would like to invite researchers in various fields in physic and quantum information to get together in order to explore these exciting and interdisciplinary directions. This meeting will be held as an annual international workshop of Extreme Universe collaboration funded by MEXT-Kakenhi grant [Webpage of ExU collaboration]. This meeting is also a part of the YITP international long term workshop program “Progress of Theoretical Bootstrap”　(Oct.27-Nov.28).
