Course topic for 2024

The topic for this year is quantum graphs and associated quantum channels. The idea of quantum graphs came out of the paradigm of noncommutative spaces (regard noncommutative algebras as function spaces on ¡®noncommutative spaces¡¯) and operator spaces (subspaces of operators on Hilbert spaces). Our main reference is a recent survey [1] by M. Daws. We supplement it with some research articles (see the syllabus page) from quantum information theory to understand its application to QIT.
