Quantum Information and Complexity


Book Description

Quantum information is a developing multi-disciplinary field, with many exciting links to white noise theory. This connection is explored and presented in this work, which effectively bridges the gap between quantum information theory and complex systems. Arising from the Meijo Winter School and International Conference, the lecture notes and research papers published in this timely volume will have a significant impact on the future development of the theories of quantum information and complexity. This book will be of interest to mathematicians, physicists, computer scientists as well as electrical engineers working in this field.

Quantum Information And Complexity - Proceedings Of The Meijo Winter School 2003


Book Description

Quantum information is a developing multi-disciplinary field, with many exciting links to white noise theory. This connection is explored and presented in this work, which effectively bridges the gap between quantum information theory and complex systems. Arising from the Meijo Winter School and International Conference, the lecture notes and research papers published in this timely volume will have a significant impact on the future development of the theories of quantum information and complexity.

Quantum Proofs


Book Description

Quantum Proofs provides an overview of many of the known results concerning quantum proofs, computational models based on this concept, and properties of the complexity classes they define. In particular, it discusses non-interactive proofs and the complexity class QMA, single-prover quantum interactive proof systems and the complexity class QIP, statistical zero-knowledge quantum interactive proof systems and the complexity class QSZK, and multiprover interactive proof systems and the complexity classes QMIP, QMIP*, and MIP*. Quantum Proofs is mainly intended for non-specialists having a basic background in complexity theory and quantum information. A typical reader may be a student or researcher in either area desiring to learn about the fundamentals of the (actively developing) theory of quantum interactive proofs.




Information And Complexity


Book Description

The book is a collection of papers of experts in the fields of information and complexity. Information is a basic structure of the world, while complexity is a fundamental property of systems and processes. There are intrinsic relations between information and complexity.The research in information theory, the theory of complexity and their interrelations is very active. The book will expand knowledge on information, complexity and their relations representing the most recent and advanced studies and achievements in this area.The goal of the book is to present the topic from different perspectives — mathematical, informational, philosophical, methodological, etc.




Classical and Quantum Computation


Book Description

An introduction to a rapidly developing topic: the theory of quantum computing. Following the basics of classical theory of computation, the book provides an exposition of quantum computation theory. In concluding sections, related topics, including parallel quantum computation, are discussed.




Quantum Information Theory


Book Description

A self-contained, graduate-level textbook that develops from scratch classical results as well as advances of the past decade.

Quantum Computing


Book Description

Mika Hirvensalo maps out the new multidisciplinary research area of quantum computing. The text contains an introduction to quantum computing as well as the most important recent results on the topic. The presentation is uniform and computer science-oriented. Thus, the book differs from most of the previous ones which are mainly physics-oriented. The special style of presentation makes the theory of quantum computing accessible to a larger audience. Many examples and exercises ease the understanding. In this second edition, a new chapter on quantum information has been added and numerous corrections, amendments, and extensions have been incorporated throughout the entire text.
