DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Arkadev Chattopadhyay (TIFR\, Mumbai)\n\nQuantum com
 puters promise to process information in ways that classical computers can
 not. But where exactly should we look for this advantage\, and how can we 
 tell when it is impossible?\nWe will describe a mathematical search for th
 e “hideouts” of quantum advantage. We will begin with simple models wh
 ere some of the first quantum algorithms were discovered\, and then move t
 o the richer world of communication\, where separated observers must combi
 ne partial information about a system. Along the way\, algebraic measures 
 will play\, somewhat surprisingly\, the role of a detector: sometimes reve
 aling that quantum speedups cannot be too large\, and sometimes pointing t
 o places where quantum advantage could reside.\nThe talk is intended for a
  general scientific audience without assuming any specialized knowledge. T
 he emphasis will be on the guiding ideas rather than technical details.\n\
