Who we are
We were born in 2016 as a cycle of interdisciplinary meetings in which we try to lay the foundations for a common language between Geometry, Algebra, Analysis and Physics starting from Quantum Information.
This is the mailinglist of the workgroup.
Form June 2018 we are part of the Q@TN initiative.
