À propos de l?auteur

Barbara Amaral is an associate professor of mathematics at the Federal University of São João del-Rei, Brazil, and a visiting researcher at the International Institute of Physics, Brazil. Her PhD thesis ("The Exclusivity Principle and the Set of Quantum Correlations", 2014) was awarded the Best Thesis Prize in Science and Technology by the Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil, from where she also graduated. She has co-authored a book on quantum theory for mathematics students (in Portuguese) as well as a number of research papers on the topic.


Marcelo Terra Cunha is a professor of mathematical physics at the University of Campinas (Unicamp), Brazil. He has co-authored several research papers on contextuality and non-locality and has authored or co-authored two books (Notions of Quantum Information, and Quantum Theory for Young Mathematicians), both in Portuguese. He is one of the founders and leaders of the Entanglement and Quantum Properties of Light group based at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil, where he was an associate professor. He has been responsible for many projects and events aiming to bring important researchers to Brazil, which have led to successful long-term collaborations with the most important international groups working in this field.
