Come join QuantUM for their first speaker series event of the semester! The event is open to all who are interested, and no background knowledge is required. Food will be provided!

Finn Larsen is a theoretical physicist whose long-term research interest is on foundational questions like the beginning of the Universe, and the interior of black holes. In this research area, progress is made by studying simple theoretical models in detail, understanding their principles, and drawing lessons about the structure of space and time. The language of quantum computing and quantum information has proven indispensable for these studies and, by now, there is a fruitful interchange of ideas between these very different research areas.

This talk will focus on ideas in quantum computing, like entanglement and quantum error correction, concluding with how these ideas enter the modern understanding of space and time.
