Date: 7 February 2020 Location: Hempfield High School, Room 213 Speaker: David Lyons, Lebanon Valley College Title: Function-encoding Quantum States Abstract: We describe one-to-one correspondences between three types of objects: (1) Boolean functions; (2) hypergraphs; and (3) quantum hypergraph states. This talk is the story of the interplay between the three, including natural generalizations. In particular, we focus on results and applications concerning quantum hypergraph states.
