About the Book

This book gives an overview for practitioners and students of quantum physics and information science. Unlike other books in quantum information and computing, this book is intended to be concise and to the point. This makes it useful in practical context of reading journal articles, performing research calculations or problems in graduate courses in physics and engineering. It is designed to provide ready access to essential information on quantum information processing and communication, such as definitions, protocols and algorithms. Quantum information science is a rapidly expanding area of technology and research containing a diverse spectrum of mathematical tools rarely found in clear and concise form. This book brings together this information from its various sources. It allows researchers and students in a broad range of areas to have this vital material directly at hand when needed. This is made possible by a concise and thorough format.



Table of Contents:
Qubits.- Measurements and quantum operations.- Quantum nonlocality and interferometry.- Classical information and communication.- Quantum information.- Quantum entanglement.- Entangled multipartite systems.- Quantum state and process estimation.- Quantum communication.- Quantum decoherence and its mitigation.- Quantum broadcasting, copying, and deleting.- Quantum key distribution.- Classical and quantum computing.- Quantum algorithms.

About the Author :

Dr. Jaeger is a professor at Boston University, where he earned his Ph.D. in Physics with Abner Shimony in 1995. He has published in a number of areas, including quantum computing, quantum cryptography, foundations of quantum mechanics, quantum metrology, and the history and philosophy of science. He was worked in academia and industry in the United States and Europe as a research director and investigator in quantum information science and quantum metrology. As a member of the Quantum Imaging Laboratory at Boston University's Photonics Center, along with colleagues at Harvard University and BBN Technologies, he helped build the world's first practical metropolitan area quantum cryptographic network, the DARPA Quantum Network Test-bed, serving as principal quantum entanglement theorist.



Review :
From the reviews: "This is a comprehensive overview of quantum information, including computation, communication and cryptography. ... The bibliography is extremely comprehensive. The book can be recommended as a useful resource for researchers in any area of quantum information, including those who are familiar with one topic and wish to enter another." (Simon J. Gay, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2009 c) "As the title states, this book provides a concise overview over quantum information theory ... . This is ... a nice book which can be recommended to researchers in other fields who wants to get a fast and sound overview over the subject. It is also suitable for students learning quantum information theory ... . For researchers working in quantum information theory it ... can serve as a compact reference book." (Michael Keyl, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1166, 2009)
