=======================================================================


Quantum computation, quantum communication, and quantum cryptography
are topics of a new and interdisciplinary field in the intersection of
computer science, information theory, and quantum mechanics. The aim of
the TQC'11 conference is to allow deep coverage of new and original
research on these topics and to raise important problems that can
benefit from theoretical investigation and analysis.

The conference will be held at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid
from May 24th until May 26th, 2011 and will consist of invited talks,
contributed talks, and poster presentations.

The scope of the conference includes, but is not limited to:

     * quantum algorithms
     * models of quantum computation
     * quantum complexity theory
     * simulation of quantum systems
     * quantum cryptography
     * quantum communication
     * quantum estimation and measurement
     * quantum noise
     * quantum coding theory
     * fault-tolerant quantum computing
     * entanglement theory
