Professor Anna Sanpera Trigueros from Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain will give a short hybrid course in quantum information theory. July 18-25, 2027
Introductory course in quantum information theory
This course is intended to be an introductory course in quantum information theory. The first part will focus on a basic mathematical description of quantum theory, namely: quantum states, quantum operations and quantum measurements. Then we will discuss the important concepts of superposition and entanglement (quantum correlations) in quantum states. Finally, I will explain key concepts for quantum communication and quantum computing: quantum gates, quantum algorithms and universal quantum computing models, and the benefits expected from quantum computing for solving hard problems.
