Quantum Information: primitive notions and quantum correlations
by Valerio Scarani
Publisher: arXiv 2009
Number of pages: 74
Description:
In the first part, I rapidly review the basic notions of quantum physics and many primitives of quantum information. The second part is devoted to a detailed introduction to the topic of quantum correlations, covering the evidence for failure of alternative theories, some aspects of the formalism of no-signaling probability distributions and some hints towards some current research topics in the field.
