Fundamentals of Quantum Information Theory

چکیده
In this paper we give a self contained introduction to the conceptional and mathematical foundations of quantum information theory. In the first part we introduce the basic notions like entanglement, channels, teleportation etc. and their mathematical description. The second part is focused on a presentation of the quantitative aspects of the theory. Topics discussed in this context include: entanglement measures, channel capacities, relations between both, additivity and continuity properties and asymptotic rates of quantum operations. Finally we give an overview on some recent developments and open questions.

متن کاملMixed States in Quantum Cryptography
Mixed states are important in quantum computation and quantum information theories. Each quantum mixed state can be described by its density matrix. We discuss how properties of mixed states and their density matrices can be used to explain fundamentals of most popular quantum computing protocols. By using density matrices we show that some of quantum protocols are safe, but some of them allow ...
