Quantum Information I (Elective), PHYS 635, February 23 - March 27, 2026
We look to understand the possibilities and limits of quantum information processing, and how an information theory perspective can inform theoretical physics. Topics covered include: entanglement, tools for measuring nearness of quantum states, characterizing the most general possible quantum operations, entropy and measuring information, the stabilizer formalism, quantum error-correcting codes, the theory of computation, quantum algorithms, classical and quantum complexity.
