4EU+2026: Quantum Information and Quantum Many-Body Theory

Following the success of the QuantuEU+ online course and of the masterclass held in Copenhagen in 2024, the University of Copenhagen, University of Milan, University of Warsaw, University of Geneva, Heidelberg University, Charles University, and Sorbonne University are once again joining forces to offer the 2026 edition of the masterclass "4EU+2026: Quantum Information and Quantum Many-Body Theory". This in-person masterclass, taking place from June 15 to 19, 2026 on the Pierre and Marie Curie Campus in Paris, is primarily aimed at Master's and PhD students interested in the challenges of modern quantum theory. Priority for registration will be given to participants who have completed the associated online course. For applicants who have not taken the online course, registration will be subject to available space, with priority access granted to students from the DigiQ network and universities within the 4EU+ Alliance. Registration is mandatory for all participants. The goal of this masterclass is to enable participants to gain an in-depth understanding of complex quantum systems and their applications in the field of quantum information. The topics covered will include entanglement and non-locality, quantum spin systems, stabilizers and graph states, thermodynamic states, Heisenberg models, matrix product states, and quantum computing. To ensure a high scientific standard, lectures will be delivered by renowned experts from the partner universities, encompassing a rich interdisciplinary approach that spans mathematics, physics, and quantum computing. Each session will begin with a review of fundamental concepts, allowing participants from diverse backgrounds to follow the lectures. Speakers will then build on this foundation to explore more advanced topics, fostering direct exchange and collaboration between students and experts. By the end of the masterclass, Master's students will have gained a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities presented by quantum theory, while PhD students will have broadened their research perspectives and strengthened their professional networks through interactions with leading researchers. This edition is firmly committed to shaping the future, reaffirming the partner universities' dedication to training the key players in the ongoing quantum revolution.
