AboutAbout the lab
Wanting to understand quantum theory at a deep level
Prof. Kimura's lab in Fundamental Information Mathematics I, known as the Quantum Foundations Lab, studies the foundations of quantum theory and quantum information science.
Using mathematical methods such as probability theory, linear algebra, and convex geometry, the lab aims to understand quantum physics at a deep level through the interpretation problem, the measurement problem, Bell's theorem, and related topics.
Quantum mechanics has many interpretations, and there is still no unified view.
The official list of labs also gives knot theory and low-dimensional topology as keywords for Fundamental Information Mathematics I.
Key terms
- Measurement problem
- An interpretational problem concerning how the act of measurement affects the state in the quantum world
- Bell's theorem
- A theorem showing that correlations between distant quantum systems cannot be explained by everyday, local ways of thinking
- General probabilistic theories
- A framework for mathematically treating broader probabilistic models, including quantum theory
ResearchResearch themes
The aim of the research is simply to understand quantum theory. The lab studies the foundations of quantum mechanics in connection with quantum information science, open quantum systems theory, and general probabilistic theories.
