TextbookClassical and Quantum Information Theory

The textbook Classical and Quantum Information Theory offers a comprehensive introduction to classical and quantum information theory. The text progressively increases in complexity from basic measures to advanced quantum information measures, with chapters alternating between classic and quantum systems. It can be used for senior undergraduate and graduate students in electrical engineering, computer science, and applied mathematics.
