Quantum Communication - Short Introduction A short introduction titled Quantum communication moves into the unknown by David Deutsch and Artur Ekert. http://eve.physics.ox.ac.uk/NewWeb/Research/communication/communication.html
Extractions: By David Deutsch and Artur Ekert Information is physical and any processing of information is always performed by physical means - an innocent-sounding statement, but its consequences are anything but trivial, In the last few years there has been an explosion of theoretical and experimental innovations which, their discoverers claim, are creating a fundamental new discipline: a distinctively quantum theory of information. Quantum physics allows the construction of qualitatively new types of logic gates, absolutely secure cryptosystems (systems that combine communications and cryptography), the cramming of two bits of information into one physical bit and, as has just been proposed, a sort of "teleportation", Here we describe the last two "miracles". Classical information theory agrees with everyday intuition: if you want to send a message using an object which can be put into one of N distinguishable states, the maximum number of different messages that you can send is N . For example, a single photon can have only two distinguishable polarisation states, say "left-handed" and "right-handed". So if you send a message by preparing the polarisation of a single photon and transmitting it, it is obvious that you can send no more than two distinguishable messages, i.e, one bit of information. 0bvious, but false.

Extractions: Papers A great part of our communicative behavior takes place between the explicitly expressed words: It happens implicitly. What we mean is hardly ever exhausted by what we explicitly say. Normally we don't have any difficulties in grasping what the speaker is trying to communicate implicitly. How can we explain this fact? Paul Grice gave the following answer: We grasp the implicit meaning by assuming cooperation on the part of the speaker (especially the observance of certain conversational maxims). And as speakers we rely on this assumption when we expect that our hearers will understand us. This starting point has already proven to be very fruitful for the philosophy of language and linguistic pragmatics. Nevertheless we still do not have a theory in an narrow sense. This situation should be changed by this project. Our first two main goals are: (G1) The development of a theory of conversational implicatures, which is embedded in the already developed General Theory of Communication and also in Intention-Based-Semantics
