PHYS-550: Quantum information theory

Summary

After recapping the basics of quantum theory from an information theoretic perspective, we will cover more advanced topics in quantum information theory. This includes introducing measures of quantum information, and developing a more advanced understanding quantum states, channels and measurements.
