Denison Quantum Computers,Public and Private Info and Lost Literature
"Quantum Computers, Public and Private Information, and the Lost Literature of Antiquity" is the title of a lecture by Charles Bennett, an IBM Fellow, at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 24, in the lecture hall of Denison University’s Burton D. Morgan Center (150 Ridge Road). The event is sponsored by the Gordon Lecture Series and is free and open to the public.
Quantum theory is one of the great discoveries of 20th century physics, but the information evolution has been based on a pre-quantum view. The quantum approach to information has led to a more coherent and powerful way of thinking about information itself. Even in everyday life, quantum principles help explain the origin of randomness, why the future is more uncertain than the past, and why some information is short-lived, while other information becomes more durable by being redundantly replicated.
Bennett is a co-discoverer of quantum teleportation and co-inventor of quantum cryptographic coding. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and a member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. Bennett is a recipient of the Rank Prize, the Harvey Prize and the Okawa Prize.
