On the outset, complexity and quantum science appear quite different. One commonly deals with networks of interacting systems on the macroscopic scale, while the describes matter at the quantum mechanical level. Yet both fields seek to understand nature by studying how it fundamentally processes information. The interdisciplinary frontiers of quantum and complexity science workshop (IfQuCS) aims to explore this connection. Questions we ask include
- How do information theoretic concepts in complexity science generalize in a quantum world?
- What ways does complexity behave differently in depending on classical or quantum observers?
- How can we apply complexity science techniques to determine complexity of various quantum systems?
- Can we find thermodynamic and operational consequences to concepts in complexity?
- Can we development experiments that test cross-disciplinary ideas in quantum and complexity science?
