'''AIM AND SCOPE'''

Quantum computation and quantum information is a rather new rapidly developing interdisciplinary field. Theoretical and practical research in this field is based on quantum physics, computer science, electrical engineering and mathematics. Computer algebra methods, algorithms and software systems have been already applied to various problems of quantum computing and quantum information. This session aims at the exchange of recent research results and ideas about algebraic and symbolic-numeric aspects of quantum computing and quantum information processing. In particular, the following topics are to be considered:

* Simulation of quantum computation by means of computer algebra systems
* Algebraic and geometric analysis of quantum algorithms
* Quantifying of multiqubit entanglement
* Construction of circuit unitary matrices
* Algebraic methods in quantum cryptography
* Symbolic-numeric methods applied to solving Schrödinger equation for qubits in external fields
* Quantum automata and algebraic groups
* Logic and algebraic structures from quantum computation
