Quantum Protocols: Testing & Quantum PCPs
Organizers:
This workshop will explore questions around the testing of quantum devices. This includes different models for testing, such as the single- and multi-device models, classical or limited quantum verifiers, and information-theoretic security versus computational assumptions. Workshop themes encompass the foundations of quantum mechanics, classical and quantum cryptography (device independence, delegated computation), and complexity theory (classical and quantum probabilistically checkable proofs).
The workshop is being live streamed on our website. Full participation (including the capacity to ask questions) will be available via Zoom webinar.
