complexity

Quantum technologies promise to revolutionize our ability to acquire, communicate, and process information. However, the fundamental limits of quantum technologies—stemming from factors including external noise, energetic costs, and the complexity of controlling many-body dynamics—are still not fully understood. This conference will bring together experts bridging theory, experiment, and commercial applications, to address questions such as:

The Summer School will take place at El Escorial, Spain (http://www.euroforum.es/), a nice and historic city about 50 km to the north of Madrid. See further information below and in the website.

The whole activity will focus primarily on the following topics:

* One-Way Quantum Computation and Statistical Mechanics
* Topological Codes and Statistical Models
* Random Statistical Mechanical Systems and Lattice Gauge Theories
* Quantum Information and Models of Discrete Quantum Gravity
