Entangled Systems; Contents; Preface to the English Edition; Preface to the German Edition; 1 The Mathematical Framework; 2 Basic Concepts of Quantum Theory; 3 The Simplest Quantum Systems: Qubits; 4 Mixed States and the Density Operator; 5 Shannon's Entropy and Classical Information; 6 The von Neumann Entropy and Quantum Information; 7 Composite Systems; 8 Entanglement; 9 Correlations and Non-Local Measurements; 10 There is no (Local-Realistic) Alternative to Quantum Theory; 11 Working with Entanglement; 12 The Quantum Computer; 13 Generalised Measurements, POVM.

Summary: An introductory textbook for advanced students of physics, chemistry and computer science, covering an area of physics that has lately witnessed rapid expansion. The topics treated here include quantum information, quantum communication, quantum computing, teleportation and hidden parameters, thus imparting not only a well-founded understanding of quantum theory as such, but also a solid basis of knowledge from which readers can follow the rapid development of the topic or delve deeper into a more specialized branch of research. Commented recommendations for further reading as well as end-of-c.
