Abstract Booklet International Conference on Quantum Frontiers and Fundamentals (30th April - 4th May, 2018) Hosted by Raman Research Institute, Bengaluru, India Sponsored by John Templeton Foundation, USA Synopsis Remarkable developments have occurred in recent times concerning investigations of fundamental aspects of Quantum Mechanics involving an intimate link between foundational ideas and experimental studies, in particular, stemming from striking progress in the relevant experimental technologies. This includes the coherent preparation and manipulation of quantum systems such as photons, electrons, neutrons, ions, and molecules. These rapid strides have enabled comprehensive empirical probing of profound quantum features like quantum superposition, wave particle duality, nonlocality and contextuality, shedding light on a wide range of fundamental issues. Facets of quantum entanglement have also been revealed starting from dense coding, teleportation and entanglement swapping to quantum steering. This, in turn, has given rise to a rich interplay between fundamental aspects of Quantum Mechanics and information theoretic studies, for instance, providing insights into the nature of quantum correlations as resource for information theoretic tasks. Novel ideas of generalized quantum measurement, including that of weak measurement, have been developed with foundational implications and empirical ramifications. Probing fundamental quantum features for continuous variable systems and higher dimensional quantum systems are two other important areas of increasing current interest, as well as in recent years considerable progress has been made in the area of testing fundamental aspects of quantum mechanics and the notion of macrorealism in the macroscopic domain. Finally, in light of all these developments, revisiting the interpretational aspects of quantum mechanics for newer insights into foundational issues is a challenging endeavour. Against this backdrop, the proposed conference intends to bring together the relevant experimentalists and theorists for critically deliberating upon the state of play and prospects in the areas mentioned above.
