International
Workshop on Theoretical Aspects of the Discrete Time Quantum Walk
November 7-10, 2011
Aim
What are probability and stochastic
processes in Quantum Mechanics? To study the foundations of
stochastic processes in Quantum Mechanics, the discrete time quantum
walk (DTQW), which is the quantum analogue of the classical random
walk, may be useful. This has recently been a hot research field,
especially in quantum information science, and has been
experimentally realized. While this workshop is mainly focused on the
theoretical side of the DTQW, we also welcome experimentalists. The organizers
strongly encourage young researchers to actively join us to this
workshop.

Submission
If you are interested in an oral
presentation, please send your abstract by September 1st, 2011. Abstract template is here
based on the REVTex4.1.
Abstract can not be more than 2 pages long.
Please send your abstract either to
Yutaka Shikano (shikano-at-th.phys.titech.ac.jp)) or to Armando Perez
(armando.perez-at-uv.es) by e-mail (you have to replace -at- by @).
Registration
To register please send an e-mail to
Yutaka Shikano (shikano-at-th.phys.titech.ac.jp)) or to Armando Perez
(armando.perez-at-uv.es) by e-mail (you have to replace -at- by @).
While the speakers of this workshop are theoreticians, we also
welcome experimentalists and interested reaserchers about DTQW. Due
to our budget limitation, the final
number of participants will be restricted to 30 people.
The proceedings of the workshop will be published on an special issue
of the Journal of Computational and Theoretical Nanoscience. Further
information can be found here.
