Year of Quantum Across Canada: From Fundamental Science to Applications
The Institute for Quantum Computing and the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics will jointly host a meeting celebrating the 100 year anniversary of the discovery of quantum mechanics.
The conference will celebrate and aim to strengthen the quantum information science community in Canada and beyond, by bringing together leading Canadian researchers as well as members of the broader quantum community. The program will highlight the fundamental advances being made in quantum information theory and how these advances lead to applications.
Topics included in the program will include:
- Quantum metrology
- Quantum simulation and quantum advantage
- Quantum error-correction and fault tolerance
- Quantum complexity and algorithms
- Quantum communication and networks
- Quantum cryptography
- Quantum information in quantum matter and quantum gravity
