Course objectives
To present advanced basic concepts of quantum information processing to such an extend that participants could get involved in research in this area. Lecture should be of interest and importance especially to those with a deeper interest in quantum information processing: projects, diploma thesis, doctarate study.
Learning outcomes
Understanding and ability to use basic terms such as entropy, quantum canals. Understanding and ability to explain fundaments of quantum entangling.
