This book constitutes revised selected papers from the 7th Conference on Theory of Quantum Computation, Communication, and Cryptography, TQC 2012, held in Tokyo, Japan, in May 2012. The 12 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in this book. They contain original research on the rapidly growing, interdisciplinary field of quantum computation, communication and cryptography. Topics addressed are such as quantum algorithms, quantum computation models, quantum complexity theory, simulation of quantum systems, quantum programming languages, quantum cryptography, quantum communication, quantum estimation, quantum measurement, quantum tomography, completely positive maps, decoherence, quantum noise, quantum coding theory, fault-tolerant quantum computing, entanglement theory, and quantum teleportation.
