Quantum Information Processing

This revised edition provides an up-to-date insight into the current research of quantum superposition, entanglement, and the quantum measurement process - the key ingredients of quantum information processing. The contributions have been carefully revised and enlarged with respect to recent developments in quantum computation, quantum transportation and cryptography. Here, leading experts bring together the latest results in quantum information and address all the relevant questions.
