dc.descriptionQuantum mechanics has led not only to new physical theories, but also a new understanding of information and computation. Quantum information began by yielding new methods for achieving classical tasks such as factoring and key distribution but also suggests a completely new set of quantum problems, such as sending quantum information over quantum channels or efficiently performing particular basis changes on a quantum computer. This thesis contributes two new, purely quantum, tools to quantum information theory--coherent classical communication in the first half and an efficient quantum circuit for the Schur transform in the second half.
dc.description176 pages. Chapters 1 and 4 are a slightly older version of quant-ph/0512015. Chapter 2 is quant-ph/0205057 plus unpublished extensions (slightly outdated by quant-ph/0511219) and chapter 3 is quant-ph/0307091, quant-ph/0412126 and change. Chapters 5-8 are based on quant-ph/0407082, but go much further
