4th Workshop on Algebraic Structures in Quantum Computation



The purpose of the workshop was to discuss in a small setting the recent advances in our understanding of quantum computation through algebraic methods. Topics included: Quantum algorithms, Generalized stabilizer formalisms, discrete Wigner functions and SICs, Symmetry-protected topological order and computational phases of quantum matter, Contextuality and Bell-nonlocality, Quantum Bayesianism, Quantum error-correction, Models of quantum computation, Mathematical methods such as Group theory, cohomology and number theory.
