Q+ Hangout: Nicholas Brunner

Here are the details of the next Q+ hangout.

Date/time: Tue. 25th Feb. at 4pm GMT/UTC

Speaker: Nicholas Brunner (University of Geneva)

Title: Dimension of Physical Systems

Abstract: The dimension of a physical system refers loosely speaking to the number of degrees of freedom relevant to describe it. Here we ask how quantum theory compares to more general models (such as Generalized Probabilistic Theories) from the point of view of dimension. This gives insight to information processing and thermodynamics in GPTs.
