Solid introduction on advanced topics in quantum information theory, including: quantum thermodynamics, quantum clocks and control, measurement theory, and other topics in quantum foundations.Pre-requisites: Quantum Information Theory or equivalent courses.

This course develops the theory of quantum error correction and fault tolerant quantum computation.

The course covers the key concepts and formalism of quantum information processing. Topics include quantum algorithms, quantum error correction, quantum cryptography, and quantum metrology, with an emphasis on the power of quantum information processing beyond that of classical information processing. The formalism of quantum states, measurements, and channels is developed in detail.

This course aims to introduce the concepts and methods of quantum information theory. It starts with an introduction to the mathematical theory of quantum systems and then discusses the basic information-theoretic aspects of quantum mechanics. Further topics include using information-theoretic methods to analyse foundational questions in physics.
