QUROPE Quantum Information Processing and Communication in Europe

The Rochester Conferences on Coherence and Quantum Optics (CQO) have been held every six years since their inception in 1960, essentially coincident with the first observation of lasing.

AQIS'13 is a meeting focused on quantum information processing, communication and cryptography, an interdisciplinary field bridging quantum physics, computer science, mathematics, and information
technologies. This event, which is the thirteenth in a highly successful series, building upon EQIS'01-05 and AQIS'06-12, is coming to India for the first time, having been held previously in Japan, China and Korea. This is the prime Asian conference in the field.

Conference Topics:

The meeting will focus on the latest achievements in the rapidly growing field of quantum engineering with a particular emphasis on the most recent advances in the broad field of atomic physics, including precision measurements; ultracold Bose and Fermi gases; ultracold molecules; quantum simulators and quantum information with atoms and ions; quantum optics. This year the conference is a satelite meeting of a BEC 2013 Conference to be held in Sant Feliu de Guixols (Spain).

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to announce and invite you to participate in a Theo Murphy Discussion Meeting at the Royal Society's Chicheley Hall 7-8 November 2013.

** Heterotic computing: exploiting hybrid computational devices **

AMMCS-2013 is an interdisciplinary international conference in a series of AMMCS meetings held in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. The series aims at promoting interdisciplinary research and collaboration involving mathematical and computational sciences, and highlighting recent advances in Applied Mathematics, Modeling and Computational Science (AMMCS). In 2013 the conference will be held in the last week of August (August 26-30, 2013). It is organized in cooperation with AIMS and SIAM and is supported by the Fields Institute.

This conference is the second of a series, initiated in Cargèse (Corsica, France) in 2011, in the form of the Summer School Disordered Systems: From Condensed-Matter Physics to Ultracold Atomic Gases.

It is anticipated that CQIQC-V will be a major international conference, facilitating interactions between the different sub-fields being included. The conference will run for 4 or 5 full days, which will involve a mix of invited and contributed talks, and posters. There will be roughly 18 40-minute invited talks, delivered by acknowledged world leaders of the field and roughly 25 20-minute contributed talks, which will be selected from what we expect (based on the previous meetings) to be a large pool of truly excellent work from around the world.

The Seventh International Conference on Quantum, Nano and Micro Technologies

This is the second workshop of the Perimeter Institute series “Emergence and Entanglement”, which started in May 2010. Recent advances in our understanding of many-body entanglement have led to significant progress in the characterization and classification of phases of quantum matter. Tensor network states have emerged as a natural language to describe highly entangled ground states and classify the distinct patterns of long-range entanglement that characterize e.g. the possible forms of topological order.
