Special Session Objective
The objective of this AMS Special Session is to make the mathematical community aware of the many mathematical research challenges posed by quantum information science.
Each invited participant for the AMS Special Session on Quantum Computation and Information is required by the AMS to submit an AMS abstract to the AMS by October 1, 2002. Any individual who has not received an invitation to speak in the AMS Special Session but would like to be considered for the Special Session is required by the AMS to submit an AMS abstract by August 6, 2002.
How to Submit an Abstract
Abstracts can be submitted electronically to the AMS at the website:
