For further information and registration, please see http://www.physics.ox.ac.uk/confs/pauli2016 Description and aim: The interdisciplinary workshop brings together experts in quantum science, as for instance quantum information theory, quantum chemistry, solid state physics and mathematical physics. The aim is to explore from a conceptual viewpoint the influence of the fermionic exchange symmetry and its consequences for the reduced 1-and 2-fermion picture. In particular, a better understanding should be developed of how the conflict of energy minimization and antisymmetry of the N-fermion quantum state leads to simplified descriptions of fermionic ground states. The emphasis lies on the four subjects: 1) particle exchange symmetry 2) reduced density matrices 3) generalized Pauli constraints 4) degeneracy pressure and numerical methods We are looking forward to welcome you in Oxford, Christian Schilling and Vlatko Vedral -- James Daniel Whitfield University Ghent, Quantum Group JDWhitfield.com --047d7bb04ed67ecb07052a9eb54b Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

This conference, celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Lewis model, intends to provide a large overview of the theories and methods that have been developed so far to get deep physicochemical insights into the nature of bonding. In particular, frontier talks and short communications for young investigators are planned. All invited speakers are Europeans but participants from other continents are welcome (and may apply for contributed talks and short communications). Besides, practical training sessions (QTAIM, ELF, NCI, VB) will be organized just before the beginning of the symposium. Hoping to see many of you at this event! The Chairmen of the ESCB1: Benoit Braida, Laurent Joubert and Vincent Tognetti. Officiel Web Site: https://escb1.univ-rouen.fr
