Quantum Information Theory
by Renato Renner
Publisher: ETH Zurich 2015
Number of pages: 187
Description:
The storage and processing of information is necessarily a physical process. It is not surprising that physics and the theory of information are inherently connected. Quantum information theory is an interdisciplinary research area whose goal is to explore this connection.
