Matrix Product Operators and the algebras that they generate

By David Pérez-García (Instituto de Ciencias Matematicas, Madrid)
Abstract: Matrix Product Operators were introduced by Fannes, Nachtergaele and Werner in their seminal 1992 paper. In this talk, I will show how their study can give new insights in different subjects within quantum information, such as channels capacities, quantum cellular automata or topological order in quantum spin systems.
