It also addresses quantum information and relativity as well as testing quantum mechanics in high energy physics. Because these self-contained lectures discuss topics not typically covered in advanced undergraduate courses, they are ideal for post-graduate students entering this field of research. Some of the lectures are written at a more introductory level while others are presented as tutorials that survey recent developments and results in various subfields. 410 0$aLecture notes in physics ;$v787. 606 $aQuantum theory 606 $aQuantum computers 606 $aInformation theory 606 $aInformation science 615 0$aQuantum theory. 615 0$aQuantum computers. 615 0$aInformation theory. 615 0$aInformation science. 676 $a530.12 701 $aBruning$b Erwin$0733262 701 $aPetruccione$b F$g(Francesco)$020936 712 12$aChris Engelbrecht Summer School on Theoretical Physics$d(18th :$f2007 :$eKwaZulu-Natal, South Africa) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910139888403321 996 $aTheoretical foundations of quantum information processing and communication$94187768 997 $aUNINA
