Deconfined Quantum Criticality sans Quantum

Explore a 41-minute lecture from the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences' Discussion Meeting on Quantum Many-Body Physics in the Age of Quantum Information, where Abhishodh Prakash delves into deconfined quantum criticality without quantum aspects. Learn about the intersection of quantum many-body physics and quantum information, particularly in the context of noisy, intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices. Discover how quantum information concepts have revolutionized the understanding of novel quantum phases and their characterization in many-body systems. Gain insights into entanglement structures, information scrambling, and their role in understanding both equilibrium and dynamical behavior of quantum systems. Understand the significance of theoretical and experimental quantum physics advancements in developing fault-tolerant quantum computers and identifying exotic quantum states as potential quantum computing resources. Part of a broader discussion meeting organized by leading experts Subhro Bhattacharjee, Manas Kulkarni, Subroto Mukerjee, and Sthitadhi Roy at the ICTS Ramanujan Lecture Hall, fostering inclusive dialogue and diverse participation in quantum physics research.
