Objectives
[1] To develop statistical tests for identifying quantum cause-effect relations. [2] To develop a notion of quantum computational complexity for computers operating with indefinite causal structure. [3] To design quantum algorithms for learning cause-effect relations. [4] To explore the emergence of classical notions of cause and effect from a quantum background where cause and effect are quantum and/or indefinite.
