Summary
February 2000, “Your Project”
(Please remind me of our conversation in Italy. I remember your name, but I can't quite picture you.)
Your proposal sounds interesting: it wasn't too bold. Why don't we carry on just as you suggested. I'd be happy to supervise a project of yours (or perhaps collaborate)…as long as the work concerns something that interests me. Presently most of my interest is in quantifying different aspects of the trade-off between information and disturbance in quantum mechanics. This includes deriving various properties for some information functions that have little coverage in the existing literature so far. If we could find something that pleases us both in that general area, I think it'd be great. (Presently I'm not too interested in tackling entanglement questions: I can't see the forest for the trees in that subject.)
About collaborations, I only have one hard and fast rule at the outset: that is that author ordering be alphabetical. I place my form letter concerning this issue below. If you feel that this would hurt you, we can agree to keep MY role in the project in a strictly supervisory capacity.
Let me know what you think: I'm always within email contact.
