Overview

The purpose of the workshop is to stimulate interaction between researchers in different disciplines, who are broadly interested in the subject of numerical ranges and the fundamental quantum marginal problem. The participants will be encouraged to discuss the recent advances as well as the challenges in their respective fields. The topics will include a mixture of traditional ones, such as theN-representability problem, and joint numerical range of operators, as well as emerging new topics that are primarily connected with the field of quantum information, such as computational complexity, quantum topography, and quantum entanglement.
