About this book
Quantum Private Communication covers the fundamentals of the areas of secure communication, quantum cryptography, quantum communication, and their physical implementation with applications. The book appears in a timely manner for an emerging field at the crossroad of classic private communication and quantum physics.
Graduate students and scientists alike in communication engineering, computer science, electronic engineering, physics and mathematics will benefit from the book.
Professor Guihua Zeng teaches and conducts research at the Department of Electronic Engineering of Shanghai Jiao Tong University and spent an Alexander von Humboldt Fellowship at the University of Freiburg, Germany.
Reviews
From the reviews:
“It is fascinating because of its breadth of coverage, running the gamut of private communication, starting with classical schemes and quantum theory, and proceeding to both quantum private communication theory and physical implementations that are currently being pursued in both the lab and in industry. … the author is … consistent in his writing and does a fine job of communicating concepts. The mathematical treatment is also quite good. … this book provides comprehensive coverage of an important and growing area of investigation.” (G. R. Mayforth, ACM Computing Reviews, May, 2011)
