Inhalt
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
