Overview

The Graduate Textbook in Quantum Information Science

Textbook of Quantum Information: Foundations, Formalism, and Applications is a rigorous, self-contained graduate course in quantum information science - from the mathematics of Hilbert space to the frontiers of quantum algorithms, error correction, and cryptography.

Written for graduate students, researchers, and advanced undergraduates in physics, computer science, and mathematics, this text builds genuine mastery from first principles. Every concept is developed with full mathematical precision, every theorem is proved, and every algorithm is derived - not merely stated.

  • Mathematical Foundations - Hilbert spaces, spectral theory, tensor products, density matrices

  • Qubits and Quantum States - Bloch sphere, mixed states, partial trace, quantum postulates

  • Quantum Circuits - Universal gate sets, Solovay-Kitaev theorem, fault-tolerant design

  • Entanglement Theory - Bell inequalities, LOCC, Schmidt decomposition, entanglement measures

  • Quantum Information Theory - von Neumann entropy, channel capacity, the HSW theorem

  • Quantum Algorithms - Shor, Grover, HHL, quantum Fourier transform, phase estimation

  • Quantum Error Correction - Stabilizer codes, surface code, fault tolerance thresholds

  • Quantum Complexity Theory - BQP, QMA, and the quantum PCP conjecture

  • Quantum Cryptography - BB84, E91, device-independent QKD, security proofs
