Computer Science Lunch Seminar
by Matthias Christandl 25 Sep '11

25 Sep '11

Dear all, Amir Shpilka, a computer scientist from Israel who is currently staying at our sister ETH in Lausanne, will visit us on Monday, the 10th of October. He is mostly interested in classical things, but has some interest in entanglement, too! You can check out his homepage at http://www.cs.technion.ac.il/~shpilka/ For his, talk, it appears however, that the correct place is the computer science department. So, he will speak to us in the computer science lunch seminar at 12:15 on October the 10th. See here for more information: http://www.ti.inf.ethz.ch/ew/mise/mittagssem.html?action=show&what=abstract… The seminar will take only 30 minutes and despite its name, there is no lunch. But after the seminar, we can take our guest to one of the nice ETH canteens around ETH Zentrum ;) Hope you can come! See you, Matthias.
