Research Group on Quantum Communication

An interdisciplinary group (EECS & Math) has formed to study research problems in quantum information theory. We focus on problems in quantum communication. Specific goals include: (1) computing invariants associated to quantum channels (such as channel capacity), (2) developing models for secure (private) communication, and (3) studying the use of quantum entanglement as a communication resource. All faculty and graduate students are welcome to attend.

At the meeting on November 10th, Aubrey da Cunha will discuss the paper "entanglement enhancement of a noisy classical communication channel" by H. Williams and P. Bourdon. (arXiv:1109.1029)
