Frontiers in Quantum Information Research

Download or read book Frontiers in Quantum Information Research written by Mikio Nakahara and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2012 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of lecture notes/contributions from a summer school on decoherence, entanglement & entropy and a workshop on MPS (matrix product states) & DMRG (density matrix renormalization group). Subjects of the summer school include introduction to MPS, black holes, qubits and octonions, weak measurement, entanglement measures and separability, generalized Bell inequalities, among others. Subjects of the workshop are dedicated to MPS and DMRG. Applications to strongly correlated systems and integrable systems are also mentioned. Contributions to this book are prepared in a self-contained manner so that a reader with a modest background in quantum information and quantum computing may understand the subjects.
