Imre S., Gyongyosi L. Advanced Quantum Communications: An Engineering Approach

New Jersey, Canada: Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2013. — 479 p. — ISBN: 978-1-118-00236-0.The book provides an overview of the most advanced quantum informational geometric techniques, which can help quantum communication theorists analyze quantum channels, such as security or additivity properties. Each section addresses an area of major research of quantum information theory and quantum communication networks. The authors present the fundamental theoretical results of quantum information theory, while also presenting the details of advanced quantum ccommunication protocols with clear mathematical and information theoretical background. This book bridges the gap between quantum physics, quantum information theory, and practical engineering.Introduction to Quantum Information Theory
