Quantum reference frames are a universal tool for dealing with symmetries in quantum systems. They thus arise in seemingly disparate areas such as quantum gravity, gauge theories, quantum information theory, and the foundations of quantum theory. They are the tools for describing quantum systems “from the inside”, and a core development is that they give rise to a novel quantum covariance of physical laws and properties.
This workshop will bring together leading experts on quantum reference frames and the many related subjects in the first focused event in the new era of quantum frame covariance. Owing to their diverse range of applicability, a number of approaches to quantum reference frames have emerged. This event will reflect these diverse developments and aim to unify and streamline them. Our goal is to bring representatives from different approaches and disciplines in which quantum frames appear together to discuss and foster building an emergent community. The workshop will include contributed talks, discussions, a poster session, and some social activity.
