Heisenberg's uncertainty principle forms a fundamental element of quantum mechanics.
Uncertainty relations in terms of entropies were initially proposed to deal with conceptual …

Quantum cryptography is the art and science of exploiting quantum mechanical effects in
order to perform cryptographic tasks. While the most well-known example of this discipline is …

The inevitable accumulation of errors in near-future quantum devices represents a key
obstacle in delivering practical quantum advantages, motivating the development of various …

Finally, here is a modern, self-contained text on quantum information theory suitable for
graduate-level courses. Developing the subject'from the ground up'it covers classical results …

Since 1984, various optical quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols have been proposed
and examined. In all of them, the rate of secret key generation decays exponentially with …

Quantum resource theories have been widely studied to systematically characterize the
nonclassicality of quantum systems. Most resource theories focus on quantum states and …

Any physical process can be represented as a quantum channel mapping an initial state to a
final state. Hence it can be characterized from the point of view of communication theory, ie …

Many fruitful analogies have emerged between the theories of quantum entanglement and
thermodynamics, motivating the pursuit of an axiomatic description of entanglement akin to …

The aim of this book is to develop" from the ground up" many of the major, exciting, pre-and
post-millenium developments in the general area of study known as quantum Shannon …

Quantum channels underlie the dynamics of quantum systems, but in many practical settings
it is the channels themselves that require processing. We establish universal limitations on …
