Description

The school will bring together around 70 students in the field of tensor network states, who will learn directly from international experts. We plan to invite 5-6 researchers who will give lectures on a variety of topics, including Matrix Product States, Projected Entangled-Pair States, Entanglement Renormalization, and holography. We plan to have some theory lectures together with other more focused on programming skills.

Objectives

The aim of the school is to teach young PhD students the basics of tensor-product states as well as the most recent technical developments. This is particularly important given the increasing number of groups working on this quickly evolving topic. The lectures will be given by researchers who work actively both on the development and the application of tensor-product state based methods.
