Carlos M. Ortiz Marrer, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory/ NCSU, Non-Local Games on Graphs

October 18, 2021 | 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm EDT

In a non-local game, two non-communicating players cooperate to convince a referee about a strategy that does not violate the rules of the game. A quantum strategy for such a game enable players to determine their answers by performing joint measurements on a shared entangled state. In this talk we will concentrate on non-local games that come from problems in graph theory. We will survey some recent breakthroughs, explain why the study of such games is important, and introduce some connections to operator algebras and their representations.
