Quantum Thermodynamics and Quantum Information Theory

The aim of this workshop is to bring together mathematicians and physicists working on quantum thermodynamics and quantum information theory. The main subjects are Quantum Thermodynamics and Quantum Information Theory. Two short lectures (3h30) will be provided in these directions. The remaining time will be devoted to more conventional talks presenting recent results and developements.

The workshop will take place at the Institut de Mathématiques of Toulouse (1st floor Building 1R3). The workshop starts Wednesday 9th September 9.30 a.m and finishes Friday 11th September 4.45 p.m.
