Visit of the RWE power plant WeisweilerWednesday, June 28 Weisweiler 12:15

Please note, you need to register with EDAS for this event.A bus will leave from the Eurogress at the above mentioned time. The tour starts at 13:00 in Weisweiler.

Tour of the old townWednesday, June 28 Elisenbrunnen 14:30 - 16:00

Please note, you need to register with EDAS for this event.The historic old town of Aachen invites to go for a stroll. Let yourself be guided through narrow alleys and across historic squares through the 2000 year-old history of Aachen. Experience all facets of Aachen, a mo-dern city with beautiful historic town houses, many old and new fountains and innumerable stories all about the Cathedral and the ‚Rathaus‘ (town hall).

Tour of the RathausWednesday, June 28 Elisenbrunnen 14:30 - 16:00

Please note, you need to register with EDAS for this event.In the 14th century the ‚Rathaus‘ (town hall) of Aachen was built on the foundation walls of the Carolingian palace. The neo-Gothic outside appearance and the baroque inside of the building are a reflection of its eventful history. Let yourself be guided through a building, which today is the location for the famous Inter-national Charlemagne Prize and at the same time is the official residence of the Lord Mayor.

Combined tour old town and Centre CharlemagneWednesday, June 28 Elisenbrunnen 14:30 - 16:30

Please note, you need to register with EDAS for this event.The guided tour through the ‚Centre Charlemagne – Neues Stadtmuseum Aachen‘ (new city museum Aachen) and the old town offers the perfect possibility of getting to know the imperial city from the past to the present. In the Centre Charlemagne you will learn everything worth knowing about Aachen’s city history; starting with early settlements from the 5th millennium B.C. to the European city of the 20th and 21st cen-tury. During a subsequent guided tour of the old town you will experience everything close up and in addition learn interesting stories about Cathedral and the ‚Rathaus‘ (town hall).

Really true? – The lies tourWednesday, June 28 Elisenbrunnen 14:30 - 16:30

Please note, you need to register with EDAS for this event.Have a guess and get to know Aachen and its stories. Listen to the many anecdotes told on the way along Aachen’s sights. The tour guide will not always strictly keep to the truth; was the first chocolate actually invented in Aachen? And did the devil have a hand in the construction of the Aachen cathedral? Is the smell around the Elisenbrunnen really that of rotten egg? Really true? In a guessing competition with other partici-pants you decide with a green or red card, whether you believe or you don’t believe the curious stories told by our tour guide.

Plenary TalksMonday, June 26 Europa hall 8:45 - 9:45

Reading and Hiding Data in Quantum SystemsAndreas Winter, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain

Quantum data hiding, originally invented as a limitation on so-called local operations and classical communications (LOCC) in distinguishing globally orthogonal states, is actually a phenomenon arising generically in statistics whenever comparing a `strong‘ set of measu-rements (i.e., decision rules) with a `weak‘ one. The classical statistical analogue is secret sharing, in which two perfectly distinguishable multi-partite hypotheses appear to be indis-

tinguishable when accessing only a marginal. The quantum versions are richer in that, e.g., LOCC allows for state tomography, so the states cannot become perfectly indistinguishable but only nearly so, and hence the question is one of efficiency. I will discuss two concrete examples and associated sets of problems.1. Gaussian operations and classical computation (GOCC): GOCC cannot distinguish optimally even two coherent states of a single mode (Takeoka/Sasaki, 2008). We find states, each a mixture of multi-mode coherent states, which are almost perfectly distinguishable by suitable measurements, but when restricted to GOCC, i.e., linear optics and post-processing, the states appear almost identical. The construction is ran-dom and relies on coding arguments. Open questions include whether one can give a constructive version of the argument, and whether even thermal states can be used, and how efficient the hiding is.2. Local operation and classical communication (LOCC): It is known that, asymptotically, log d bits can be hidden in a bipartite d x d-system (Hayden/Leung/Shor/Winter, 2004). We show that this is asymptotically optimal by using the calculus of min-entropies. In fact, we get bounds on the data hiding capacity of any pre-paration system; these are, however, not always tight. While it is known that data hiding by separable states is possible, i.e., the state preparation can be done by LOCC, it is open whether the optimal information efficiency of (asymptotically) log d bits can be achieved by separable states.

BiographyAndreas Winter received a Diploma degree in Mathematics from Freie Universität Berlin, Berlin, Germany, in 1997, and a Dr. math. degree from the Fakultät für Mathematik, Bielefeld University, Germany, in 1999. He was Research Associate at Bielefeld University, and from 2001 with the Department of Computer Science at University of Bristol, U.K. In 2003, still with University of Bristol, he was appointed Lecturer in Mathe-matics, and in 2006 Professor of Physics of Information. Since 2012 he is ICREA Research Professor with the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain. He is the recipient of a Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit Award (2007), a Philip Leverhulme Prize (2009) and the Whitehead Prize of the London Mathematical Society (2012).Andreas Winter‘s scientific interests revolve around quantum information theory and discrete mathematics, in particular quantum Shannon theory. He is the originator of several technical and conceptual innovations in that field, among them the discovery of state merging as a primitive and the meaning of negative informa-tion; the application of geometric measure concentration in quantum information and statistical mechanics; the development of a matrix tail bound à la Bernstein with numerous applications in information theory, signal processing and combinatorics; techniques towards strong converses and „pretty strong“ converses in quantum Shannon theory; quantum entropy inequalities; and the development of zero-error quantum information theory, including an interpretation of the Lovász number as the zero-error capacity of a graph assisted by no-signalling correlations.

Biological Systems as Communication NetworksUrbashi Mitra, University of Southern California (USC), Los Angeles, USA

Significant progress has been made, of late, on fundamental problems across many areas of biology – in particular, biological interaction and signaling. Two important questions remain elusive. How do complex networks of simple organisms form in order to perform so-phisticated tasks? What are the underlying signaling mechanisms that enable the formation and operation of such networks? Concepts and methods from information theory and com-

munication theory offer some hope in providing abstractions and tools that can enable basic understanding of these two questions as well as determine fundamental limitations. The definition of communication in the biological context is vague and can be considered as „the transfer of information from one cell or molecule to another via chemical, mechanical, or electrical signals,“ or more broadly as „an activity by one organism that changes the behavior of another.“ Given the enormous diversity of organisms, there is an equally large number of communication systems that can be studied, and not all systems yield to a communication- or information-theoretic lens. To this end, we shall consider microbial ecosystems which contain a number of communication/information theoretic architectures. Microbial communities play a significant role in infection, bioremediation, plant growth promotion, human and animal digestion, the carbon cycle, cleaning water and microbial fuel cells. Two canonical multi-terminal structures are of importance: multi-hopped networks moti-vated by bacterial cables, and ad hoc multi-terminal networks as proxies for biofilms and quorum sensing. In this talk, we explore how a communication- and information-theoretic framework can be used to understand — and possibly design — biological systems.
