Dear all,

the Summer 2014 reading group on Quantum Information Theory will begin 
this coming Monday, April 14th, from 18:00 - 20:00 (CT). After that we 
will meet bi-weekly. The location is Ludwigstraße 31, Room 021.

The first part of the meeting on Monday will be devoted to 
organisational matters and to discussing subsequent meeting topics. 
During the second part of the meeting, *Seamus Bradley* will introduce 
us to *Classical Information Theory*. As background reading, you may 
want to look at Parts I and II of Claude Shannon's "A Mathematical 
Theory of Communication" (1948). It can be downloaded from: 
http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/ms/what/shannonday/shannon1948.pdf

Everyone interested in the topic of quantum information theory is 
encouraged to attend the group. Please also feel free to distribute this 
to anyone not subscribed to this mailing list who you think may be 
interested in attending.

If you are receiving this email twice because you belong to this mailing 
list but are explicitly included in the Cc list, please let me know and 
I will remove you from the latter.

I hope to see many of you next week.

Best wishes,
