Title: Fundamental limitations for quantum and nano thermodynamics

We describe a new cryptosystem which (conjecturally) provides both a
trap-door one-way function and a signature scheme. The new system is a
type of "multivariate quadratic" cryptosystem, but is based on a
different trap-door from existing methods, and is simpler.

This talk will begin by justifying the first part of the title, by explaining a method to test whether a given multipartite pure state is product or far from product, given only two copies of the state. Next, I'll explain how this test has implications for the computational hardness of a large number of optimization problems.

Setting up hydrodynamics equations in the relativistic regime, and to then apply numerical algorithms to solve these equations for ideal and viscous fluids.
Jay Erker, University of California, Davis
The time dependent Dirac-Frenkel-Mclachlan-Heller variation of parameters (DFMH method) is used to model two NMR problems that do not have analytical solutions, diffusion in a quadratic field gradient and radiation damping in an inhomogeneous field. Initial results related to the treatment of chemical exchange treated as a distribution and the application of the DFMH method to pulsed RF Gradients will be mentioned.
A Q+ hangout is a broadcast seminar using the hangout feature of Google+. Title: Seeing is Believing: Direct Observation of the Wavefunction.
A Q+ hangout is a broadcast seminar using the hangout feature of Google+. Participation is limited at the moment. IQC was given one of the available slots. To take part in the hangout, join us in RAC1 3004 on Tuesday March 27th at 9am.
