Research Group on Quantum Communication

An interdisciplinary group of faculty & students studies problems in quantum information theory with a focus on quantum communication. Specific goals for the group include: (1) developing protocols for quantum cryptography, (2) estimating numerical invariants associated to quantum channels (such as channel capacity), and (3) studying the use of quantum entanglement as a communication resource. All faculty and students are welcome to attend.

At the meeting on February 28th, Xiaodi Wu will discuss the paper "weak multiplicativity for random quantum channels" by A. Montanaro. (arXiv:1112.5271)
