An invitation to group theory in quantum physics
At the beginning of the twentieth century, Emmy Noether explored the relationship between the symmetry of a physical system and its conservation laws. After that, group theory has been increasingly widely applied in physics. In this course, we will introduce the foundational concepts, techniques, and applications of group theory in quantum physics.

Lecturer Intro
Hao Dai received her Ph.D. from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2020. Following that, from 2020 to 2023, she worked as a postdoctoral fellow at Tsinghua University. In 2023, she has become an Assistant Professor at BIMSA. Her primary research interests encompass the domains of quantum information and computation.
