Quantum Error Correction by Daniel A Lidar

Quantum Error Correction by Daniel A Lidar

Quantum computation and information is one of the most exciting developments in science and technology of the last twenty years. To achieve large scale quantum computers and communication networks it is essential not only to overcome noise in stored quantum information, but also in general faulty quantum operations. Scalable quantum computers require a far-reaching theory of fault-tolerant quantum computation. This comprehensive text, written by leading experts in the field, focuses on quantum error correction and thoroughly covers the theory as well as experimental and practical issues. The book is not limited to a single approach, but reviews many different methods to control quantum errors, including topological codes, dynamical decoupling and decoherence-free subspaces. Basic subjects as well as advanced theory and a survey of topics from cutting-edge research make this book invaluable both as a pedagogical introduction at the graduate level and as a reference for experts in quantum information science.

Daniel A. Lidar is a Professor of Electrical Engineering, Chemistry and Physics at the University of Southern California, and directs the USC Center for Quantum Information Science and Technology. He has worked on quantum control theory for the past 15 years and is well known for his contributions to quantum error correction, in particular the development of decoherence-free subspaces. Todd A. Brun is an Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering, Physics and Computer Science at the University of Southern California. He has worked in the field of quantum information science for nearly 20 years, and has made many influential contributions to quantum error correction, where he is especially known for his work on entanglement-assisted codes.
