Quantum Communication and Security
This volume aims to assess the state-of-the-art in the field of Quantum Communication and Security and to identify new research challenges. The papers in this book concentrate mainly on quantum cryptography (both technical and experimental aspects and pure theory), general problems of theoretical quantum information and its realizations (laboratories and applied physics), and finally the related topics concerning quantum theory itself - the most fundamental questions. This publication is divided into four chapters: Quantum Cryptography; Theory of Quantum Information; Production of Entangled States, Experimental Techniques; and Quantum Communication and Computation. The editors hope to disseminate a broad spectrum of advances in quantum information and communication with this book.
