Title: What is Quantum Mechanics?
Speaker: Ishaan Shah (Ohio State University)
Abstract: We will explore Quantum Mechanics in the case where the observables in question only have a finite set of values. This will allow us to understand how Quantum Mechanics is probabilistic information, has superposition states, and what the uncertainty principle is without using Hilbert Spaces. Time permitting, we will also explore Spin, Bell’s inequality, symmetry, and the Harmonic Oscillator.
