Quantum Information Theory Reading Group at LMU

[Michael Cuffaro]

Dear all,

this is just a reminder that the first meeting of the Summer 2014 
reading group on Quantum Information Theory is tonight (Monday) from 
18:00 - 20:00 (the time is "CT", i.e., actually from 18:15 - 19:45). The 
location of the meeting is Ludwigstraße 31, Room 021.

The first part of the meeting 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:
