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).
