variational learning

Mini-conference at the intersection between classical and quantum variational algorithms to study quantum many-body systems.
5 days of focused lectures and discussions among the 50 partecipants on a large terrace with boards and a beautiful view on the Geneva Lake. Registration is free and local expenses are covered by our sponsors. We encourage partecipants to submit a contributed talk.

We will cover fundamental problems such as embedding symmetries and representational power of variational states, (higher-order) optimization techniques and applications thereof.
