Description and Table of Contents
Description
Numerous fundamental properties of quantum information measurement are developed, including the von Neumann entropy of a statistical operator and its limiting normalized version, the entropy rate.
Use of quantum-entropy quantities is made in perturbation theory, central limit theorems, thermodynamics of spin systems, entropic uncertainty relations, and optical communication.
This new softcover corrected reprint contains summaries of recent developments added to the ends of the chapters.
