Introduction to the Theory of Quantum Information Processing
Bergou, János A.
Introduction to the Theory of Quantum Information Processing [electronic resource] / by János A. Bergou, Mark Hillery. - XI, 150 p. online resource. - Graduate Texts in Physics, 1868-4513 . - Graduate Texts in Physics, .
Preface -- Introduction -- The Density Matrix -- Entanglement -- Generalized Quantum Dynamics -- Quantum Measurement Theory -- Quantum Cryptography -- Quantum Algorithms -- Quantum Machines -- Decoherence and Quantum Error Correction -- Index.
Introduction to the Theory of Quantum Information Processing provides the material for a one-semester graduate level course on quantum information theory and quantum computing for students who have had a one-year graduate course in quantum mechanics. Many standard subjects are treated, such as density matrices, entanglement, quantum maps, quantum cryptography, and quantum codes. Also included are discussions of quantum machines and quantum walks. In addition, the book provides detailed treatments of several underlying fundamental principles of quantum theory, such as quantum measurements, the no-cloning and no-signaling theorems, and their consequences. Problems of various levels of difficulty supplement the text, with the most challenging problems bringing the reader to the forefront of active research. This book provides a compact introduction to the fascinating and rapidly evolving interdisciplinary field of quantum information theory, and it prepares the reader for doing active research in this area.
