Context
The 47th Conference on Quantum Probability and Infinite Dimensional Analysis (QP47) will take place in Monastir, Tunisia, from October 26 to October 30, 2026.
This edition of the conference is dedicated to the memory of Habib Ouerdiane, who founded the Tunisian school of Quantum Probability and Infinite Dimensional Analysis. Over the years, this school has grown significantly and has now reached its third generation of researchers, achieving remarkable scientific progress over the past decade despite often challenging working conditions. Habib Ouerdiane also played a prominent role in the international Quantum Probability community, notably as the main organizer of the 29th QP Conference, held in Hammamet in 2008.
The subtitle of the conference,
“Special Topics on Quantum and Classical Control and Quantum Transport,”
reflects the ambitious objective of this meeting: to build a bridge between the Quantum Probability community and the rapidly expanding field of quantum control, with particular emphasis on mathematical foundations, recent theoretical developments, emerging topics, and applications.
Quantum control has become a central topic in modern mathematical physics and engineering, especially in connection with quantum technologies, quantum information, and quantum transport phenomena. At the same time, classical control theory has reached a high level of maturity and continues to provide powerful analytical tools that can inspire new approaches in the quantum setting. The organizers are convinced that a closer interaction between classical and quantum control theory will be mutually beneficial and will open new perspectives for both communities.
Several mathematical and physical approaches to quantum control exist today, including stochastic methods, operator algebra techniques, infinite-dimensional analysis, and control-theoretic approaches to quantum systems. The organizers will therefore make every effort to ensure that the major research directions in these areas are well represented.
Special attention will be given to:
- the interaction between theoretical developments and practical applications,
- recent advances in quantum and classical control theory,
- quantum transport and related phenomena,
- stochastic methods in quantum systems,
- and open problems and future research directions in these rapidly evolving fields.
The scientific program will consist of plenary lectures, invited talks, and poster sessions, providing a stimulating framework for scientific exchange between mathematicians, physicists, and researchers working in control theory. The conference aims to encourage interdisciplinary discussions and foster new collaborations between different research communities.
