Title | Quantum State Estimation |
Author(s) | Paris, Matteo;Rehacek, Jaroslav |
Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2004. |
Description | XIII, 520 p : online resource |
Abstract Note | This book is a comprehensive survey of most of the theoretical and experimental achievements in the field of quantum estimation of states and operations. Albeit still quite young, this field has already been recognized as a necessary tool for research in quantum optics and quantum information, beyond being a fascinating subject on its own as it touches upon the very conceptual foundations of quantum mechanics. The books consists of twelve extensive lectures that are essentially self-contained and modular allowing to combine various chapters as a basis for advanced courses and seminars on theoretical or experimental aspects. The last two chapters, for instance, form a self-consistent exposition on quantum discrimination problems. The book will benefit graduate students and newcomers to the field as high-level but accessible textbook, lecturers in search for advanced course material and researcher wishing to consult a modern and authoritative source of reference |

Title | Permutation Complexity in Dynamical Systems : Ordinal Patterns, Permutation Entropy and All That |
Author(s) | Amig??, Jos?? |
Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2010. |
Description | X, 280 p. 13 illus. in color : online resource |
Abstract Note | The study of permutation complexity can be envisioned as a new kind of symbolic dynamics whose basic blocks are ordinal patterns, that is, permutations defined by the order relations among points in the orbits of dynamical systems. Since its inception in 2002 the concept of permutation entropy has sparked a new branch of research in particular regarding the time series analysis of dynamical systems that capitalizes on the order structure of the state space. Indeed, on one hand ordinal patterns and periodic points are closely related, yet ordinal patterns are amenable to numerical methods, while periodicity is not. Another interesting feature is that since it can be shown that random (unconstrained) dynamics has no forbidden patterns with probability one, their existence can be used as a fingerprint to identify any deterministic origin of orbit generation. This book is primarily addressed to researchers working in the field of nonlinear dynamics and complex systems, yet will also be suitable for graduate students interested in these subjects. The presentation is a compromise between mathematical rigor and pedagogical approach. Accordingly, some of the more mathematical background needed for more in depth understanding has been shifted into the appendices |

Title | Random Walks and Diffusions on Graphs and Databases : An Introduction |
Author(s) | Blanchard, Philipp;Volchenkov, Dimitri |
Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2011. |
Description | XIV, 262 p : online resource |
Abstract Note | Most networks and databases that humans have to deal with contain large, albeit finite number of units. Their structure, for maintaining functional consistency of the components, is essentially not random and calls for a precise quantitative description of relations between nodes (or data units) and all network components. This book is an introduction, for both graduate students and newcomers to the field, to the theory of graphs and random walks on such graphs. The methods based on random walks and diffusions for exploring the structure of finite connected graphs and databases are reviewed (Markov chain analysis). This provides the necessary basis for consistently discussing a number of applications such diverse as electric resistance networks, estimation of land prices, urban planning, linguistic databases, music, and gene expression regulatory networks |

Title | Finite Sample Analysis in Quantum Estimation |
Author(s) | Sugiyama, Takanori |
Publication | Tokyo, Springer Japan, 2014. |
Description | XII, 118 p. 14 illus., 11 illus. in color : online resource |
Abstract Note | In this thesis, the author explains the background of problems in quantum estimation, the necessary conditions required for estimation precision benchmarks that are applicable and meaningful for evaluating data in quantum information experiments, and provides examples of such benchmarks. The author develops mathematical methods in quantum estimation theory and analyzes the benchmarks in tests of Bell-type correlation and quantum tomography with those methods. Above all, a set of explicit formulae for evaluating the estimation precision in quantum tomography with finite data sets is derived, in contrast to the standard quantum estimation theory, which can deal only with infinite samples. This is the first result directly applicable to the evaluation of estimation errors in quantum tomography experiments, allowing experimentalists to guarantee estimation precision and verify quantitatively that their preparation is reliable |

Title | Information and Self-Organization : A Macroscopic Approach to Complex Systems |
Author(s) | Haken, Hermann |
Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2006. |
Description | XIV, 258 p : online resource |
Abstract Note | This book presents the concepts needed to deal with self-organizing complex systems from a unifying point of view that uses macroscopic data. The various meanings of the concept "information" are discussed and a general formulation of the maximum information (entropy) principle is used. With the aid of results from synergetics, adequate objective constraints for a large class of self-organizing systems are formulated and examples are given from physics, life and computer science. The relationship to chaos theory is examined and it is further shown that, based on possibly scarce and noisy data, unbiased guesses about processes of complex systems can be made and the underlying deterministic and random forces determined. This allows for probabilistic predictions of processes, with applications to numerous fields in science, technology, medicine and economics. The extensions of the third edition are essentially devoted to an introduction to the meaning of information in the quantum context. Indeed, quantum information science and technology is presently one of the most active fields of research at the interface of physics, technology and information sciences and has already established itself as one of the major future technologies for processing and communicating information on any scale. This book addresses graduate students and nonspecialist researchers wishing to get acquainted with the concept of information from a scientific perspective in more depth. It is suitable as a textbook for advanced courses or for self-study |

Title | Quantum Chance : Nonlocality, Teleportation and Other Quantum Marvels |
Author(s) | Gisin, Nicolas |
Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Copernicus
2. Springer International Publishing, 2014. |
Description | XXIII, 109 p. 12 illus., 3 illus. in color : online resource |
Abstract Note | Quantum physics, which offers an explanation of the world on??the smallest??scale, has fundamental implications that pose a serious challenge to ordinary logic. Particularly counterintuitive is the notion of entanglement, which has been explored for the past 30 years and posits an ubiquitous randomness capable of manifesting itself simultaneously in more than one place. This amazing 'non-locality' is more than just an abstract??curiosity or paradox: it has entirely down-to-earth applications in cryptography, serving for example??to protect financial information; it also has enabled the demonstration of 'quantum teleportation', whose infinite possibilities even science-fiction writers can scarcely imagine. This delightful and concise??exposition does not??avoid the??deep logical difficulties of quantum physics, but gives the reader the insights needed to appreciate them??. From 'Bell's Theorem' to experiments in quantum entanglement, the reader will gain a??solid understanding of one of the most fascinating areas of contemporary physics |

Title | It From Bit or Bit From It? : On Physics and Information |
Author(s) | Aguirre, Anthony;Foster, Brendan;Merali, Zeeya |
Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2015. |
Description | VIII, 240 p. 50 illus : online resource |
Abstract Note | The essays in this book look at the question of whether physics can be based on information, or ??? as John Wheeler phrased it ??? whether we can get ???It from Bit???.?? They are based on the prize-winning essays submitted to the FQXi essay competition of the same name, which drew over 180 entries. The eighteen contributions address topics as diverse as quantum foundations, entropy conservation, nonlinear logic and countable spacetime. Together they provide stimulating reading for all physics aficionados interested in the possible role(s) of information in the laws of nature. The Foundational Questions Institute, FQXi, catalyzes, supports, and disseminates research on questions at the foundations of physics and cosmology, particularly new frontiers and innovative ideas integral to a deep understanding of reality, but unlikely to be supported by conventional funding sources |
