Hi all,
this is a reminder of David Jennings' quantum information talk today at
4pm in the Time Room.
Title: *The continuum limit of tensor networks: a path integral
representation*
Speaker: *David Jennings* (Imperial College London)
Abstract:
I will discuss a path-integral representation of continuum tensor
networks that extends the continuous MPS class for 1-D quantum fields to
arbitrary spatial dimensions while encoding desirable symmetries. The
physical states can be interpreted as arising through a continuous
measurement process by a lower dimensional virtual field with Lorentz
symmetry. The resultant physical states naturally obey entropy area
laws, with the expectation values of observables determined by the
dissipative dynamics of the boundary field. The class offers the
prospect of powerful new analytical and computational tools to describe
the physics of strongly interacting field systems.
Date: Monday, April 22, 2013 - 4:00 pm
Location: Time Room (294)
Hope to see you there!
Best,
Markus
