Quantifying Entanglement with Quantum Entropy Speaker(s): Jon Yard
Abstract: Entropy plays a fundamental role in quantum information theory through applications ranging from communication theory to condensed matter physics. These applications include finding the best possible communication rates over noisy channels and characterizing ground state entanglement in st... read more

Surprises in the theory of quantum channel capacity Speaker(s): Jon Yard
Abstract: A quantum channel models a physical process which adds noise to a quantum system by interacting with the environment. Protecting quantum systems from such noise can be viewed as an extension of the classical communication problem introduced by Shannon sixty years ago. A fundamental quantity of inter... read more

Quantum communication with zero-capacity channels Speaker(s): Jon Yard
Abstract: A quantum channel models a physical process in which noise is added to a quantum system via interaction with its environment. Protecting quantum systems from such noise can be viewed as an extension of the classical communication problem introduced by Shannon sixty years ago. A fundamental quantity ... read more
