Quantum Information Theory Reading Group

[Michael Cuffaro]

Dear all,

the next meeting of the Summer 2014 reading group on Quantum Information 
Theory will take place on Monday, May 26 2014 from 18:00 - 20:00 (note 
that the time is "CT", i.e., actually from 18:15 - 19:45). The location 
of the meeting will be Ludwigstraße 31, Room 021.

During the meeting, Geza Giedke will lead our discussion on "Some 
Negative Remarks on Operational Approaches to Quantum Theory" by Fuchs 
and Stacey. The paper can be found here: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1401.7254v1

Optionally, you may also want to look at "Quantum-Bayesian Coherence: 
The No-Nonsense Version" by Fuchs and Schack, which can be found here: 
http://arxiv.org/pdf/1301.3274v1

The second paper provides some of the math to back up some of the claims 
made in the first.

I hope to see many of you there.

Best wishes,

Michael Cuffaro
