Description

Introduction to Quantum Cryptography by Thomas Vidick and Stephanie Wehner is an accessible introduction to quantum cryptography, assuming no prior knowledge in quantum computing. The book covers essential background theory and mathematical techniques, applying them to the analysis and design of quantum cryptographic protocols. It explores several important applications, including quantum key distribution, quantum money, and delegated quantum computation, while also serving as a self-contained introduction to the field of quantum computing. With frequent illustrations and simple examples relevant to quantum cryptography, this book aims to build intuition and challenge readers to understand the basis of cryptographic security. Supplemented by worked examples, mid-chapter exercises, in-text quizzes, end-of-chapter homework problems, and recommended further reading, online resources are also available for instructors, including interactive computational problems in Julia, videos, lecture slides, and a fully worked solutions manual.
