Quantum Information, Algebra and Geometry Workgroup


Who we are


We were bore in 2016 as a cycle of interdisciplinary meetings at the University of Trento in which we try to lay the foundations for a common language between Geometry, Algebra and Physics startign from Quantum Information.

This is the mailinglist of the workgroup.

From June 2018 we are part of the Q@TN initiative
