Recenzje

"The book has three appendices on quantum divergences and their monotonicity, hypothesis testing and asymptotic equipartition properties. A large number of references are cited at the end of the book. The book presents wealth of theoretical information on quantum information theory. ... The book may be used as a reference for the researchers in quantum information theory." (K. N. Shukla, zbMATH 1505.80001, 2023)
