FPP6 – Foundations of Probability and Physics-6
at Linnaeus University, June 13-16, 2011. Arrival June 12, departure June 17.
The Foundations of Probability and Physics-6 (FPP6) conference is arranged by ICMM, International Centre for Mathematical Modelling in physics, engineering and cognitive sciences, at Linnaeus University in Växjö, Sweden.
This is the 12th conference arranged by ICMM which is devoted to quantum foundations and quantum information, especially the clarification of fundamental questions. For previous conferences, see Lnu.se/forskargrupper/icmm/conferences
The Växjö series is the longest continuous series of conferences devoted to quantum foundations in the history of quantum mechanics. During previous conferences we were fortunate to have not only physicists (theorists as well as experimentalists), but also mathematicians and several philosophers discussing the foundations of quantum theory, especially in the light of recent developments of quantum information theory. Fundamental questions of quantum mechanics, especially information theory, quantum computing, cryptography and teleportation have continued to be central topics in this series of conferences. Besides the main conference block – General Questions of Quantum Foundations – special sessions will be organized.
