SUMMARY:Novel quantum coding schemes to advance quantum communications
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Paolo Villoresi (Full professor of Physics\,  Universi
 ty of Padova)\n\nAbstract: \nQuantum communications represent the most fun
 damental level of physical exchange between distant interlocutors. At the
  heart of these there is the encoding of the quantum state\, that use one 
 or mode degrees of freedom of the electromagnetic field or\, in the corpus
 cular view\, the single photons. In this talk\, advances will be presente
 d both on the type of degrees of freedom and on the type of encoding\, whi
 ch allow to achieve advanced quantum communications both from the point of
  view of tests on the foundations of quantum physics and on the applicatio
