The Tricontinental Quantum Fundamentals Seminar (3C-QFS) series is a fortnightly meeting online, which aims to connect researchers from Australia, Europe and America. Our goal is to facilitate discussion between the three continents and bring together those working on foundational topics in relativistic quantum physics, covering but not limited to:
- Measurement and localisation in relativistic quantum field theory
- Holography, AdS/CFT, and analogue gravity
- Energy conditions and quantum inequalities
- Non-locality and observer-dependence of entanglement
- Quantum reference frames and symmetries in quantum theory
- Bandlimited quantum field theory, discrete spacetime, and generalised uncertainty relations
The seminars will be held online via Zoom, consisting of a 40-60 minute talk followed by additional time for further questions and discussion. We will meet fortnightly, alternating between two times chosen to connect research communities across two of the three continents.
For those unable to join the seminars live, talks will be recorded and hosted on the 3C-QFS YouTube channel.
The seminar series is primarily for students and academics active in the foundations of physics. To sign up for the mailing list and join the seminars live, please complete the registration form on the 3C-QFS website.
