Astrophysics and Cosmology through Problems - 4B
Mark Wyman - PDT Partners LLC , Niayesh Afshordi - University of Waterloo
This course is aimed at advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students, and is inspired by a book by the same title, written by Padmanabhan. Each session consists of solving one or two pre-determined problems, which is done by a randomly picked student. While the problems introduce various… -

Quantum communication with zero-capacity channels
Jon Yard - Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC)
A quantum channel models a physical process in which noise is added to a quantum system via interaction with its environment. Protecting quantum systems from such noise can be viewed as an extension of the classical communication problem introduced by Shannon sixty years ago. A fundamental quantity… -

Volodya Miransky - Western University
Quantum Field Theory I course taught by Volodya Miransky of the University of Western Ontario -
On the analogy between thermodynamics and quantum entanglement
Jos Uffink - Utrecht University
According to the second law of thermodynamics the entropy of a system cannot decrease by adiabatic state transformations. In quantum mechanics, the \'degree of entanglement\' of a state cannot increase under state transformations of a certain kind (local operations assisted by classical… -

Wiggling Hilbert Space
Cozmin Ududec - Government of the United Kingdom
After using the complex Hilbert space formalism for quantum theory for so long, it is very easy to begin to take for granted features like projection operators and the projection postulate, the algebra of observables, symmetric transition probabilities, linear evolution, etc.... Over the past 50… -
New CMB Polarization Results From QUaD
Clem Pryke - University of Chicago
The QUaD experiment has recently released CMB polarization results at el>200 which are the most sensitive to date. The predicted series of peaks in the EE spectrum are shown to be present for the first time while BB remains undetectable. After briefly reviewing the motivation for polarization… -
Bipartite states of low rank are almost surely entangled
Mary Beth Ruskai - University of Massachusetts Lowell
There are many results showing that the probability of entanglement is high for large dimensions. Recently, Arveson showed that the probability of entanglement is zero when the rank of a bipartite state is no larger than half the dimension of the smaller space. We show that that the probability of… -
Noncommutative Geometry à la Connes
Christoph Stephan - University of Potsdam
During the last two decades Alain Connes developed Noncommutative Geometry, which allows to unify two of the basic theories of modern physics: General Relativity and the Standard Model of Particle Physics. In the noncommutative framework the Higgs boson, which had previously to be put in by hand… -
