Beskrivning

Quantum communication theory is receiving much attention as the basis for practical optical communications and quantum measurements. This book is a unique survey of the activities of the leading research groups from mathematical physics, information theory, and various areas in quantum optics. The contributions deal with both theory and foundations of quantum physics together with technical applications.
