Contents
The seminar will serve as an introduction to the basic concepts of quantum information theory and quantum computation. Topics covered include
Basics of quantum theory:
  • states

  • evolution and measurement

  • tensor product and entanglement

Uses of entanglement:

  • Bell inequalities

  • quantum cryptography

  • quantum teleportation

  • quantum information

Quantum computing:

  • quantum circuits

  • quantum algorithm

We will use mostly textbooks and lecture notes as a basis for the preparation of the talks. An important source will be the lecture notes of John Preskill
