Quantum Resource Theory Synopsis
Quantum Resource Theory introduces quantum resource theory in a simplified and self-consistent manner. Including the latest advances in the field, it forms a handbook for both beginners and senior researchers interested in this expanding field.
The book starts by introducing the basics of quantum information theory, including quantum state, quantum operation, and quantum measurement. Then it illustrates the quantum resources one by one, including purity, coherence, discord, entanglement, thermodynamics, magic, Bell non-locality and channel resources., with an emphasis on the intuition behind the important results, as well as the close relation between quantum resources and the advantage of quantum information protocols. With these efforts, the authors explore the interplay between different types of quantum resources.
