Introduction to the Theory of Quantum Information Processing Summary

Introduction to the Theory of Quantum Information Processing by Janos A. Bergou

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.

Introduction to the Theory of Quantum Information Processing Reviews

From the reviews:

This textbook aims at providing graduate students with a compact introduction to the field. ... Every chapter starts with a well-written motivation to the topic and closes with a section containing exercises. The book is thus well suitable for graduate students and scientists specializing in quantum information. Beyond this, it may also serve as a reference for active researchers. (Gernot Schaller, zbMATH, Vol. 1278, 2014)
