Recent years have also seen an increasing interest in it from the viewpoint of relativistic quantum information. However, it is largely unexplored in the context of the thermodynamics of quantum systems. Probably one of the first works in this … [View More]

Hi all, today we're in K52. Emily Adlam, visiting from Cambridge, will give the talk. See below for title and abstract. Best, -joe Title: In Which Alice is a Know-It-All and Bob Never Learns Abstract: Bob has a black box that emits a single pure state qudit which is, from his perspective, uniformly distributed. Alice wishes to give Bob evidence that she has knowledge about the emitted state while giving him little or no information about it. We show that zero-knowledge evidencing of such … [View More]
