The Lorentz
group, which is the underlying scientific language for modern optics, has most notably been used for understanding Einstein’s special relativity. By using a
simplified approach of two-by-two matrices and Wigner functions, this book
provides a basic and novel approach to classical and quantum optics, making these difficult
subjects more transparent to the reader. Written by three experts in the field, Sibel Başkal,
Young S Kim and Marilyn E Noz, this book will provide the reader with a comprehensive overview of how fundamental
issues in quantum mechanics can be approached using various optical
instruments, Wigner functions and quantum entanglement.
