Quantum physics predicts a variety of phenomena challenging our understanding of the physical world. Among the most striking effects are quantum correlations. When distant observers perform local incompatible measurements on a shared entangled state, the resulting correlations are non-classical, in the sense of being incompatible with the predictions of classical physical. The aim of this workshop is to discuss the recent developments and future challenges in our understanding of the nature of quantum correlations, the mathematical structure of quantum measurements, and the relations between these fields of research. More particularly, the workshop aims at covering the following directions:
• Quantum correlations. Quantum correlations in general causal structures. Tools and hierarchies for detecting and characterizing quantum correlations, including inflation, high-dimensional entanglement witnesses, and communication cost of classical simulation.
• Quantum measurements. Structural developments and novel concepts, including simulation of measurements and entanglement cost of measurements. Characterization of quantum correlations using measurement theory.
• Quantum information protocols. Device-independent protocols, including quantum key distribution, randomness generation and self-testing.
We have selected a number of invited speakers who have all significantly contributed to these developments, and will also strongly encourage younger researchers to participate and present their resul
