Abstract

The field of quantum information processing has profited from many concepts and techniques of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Here, we discuss in which ways NMR spectroscopy can benefit from ideas of quantum information theory. The application of optimal control theory to quantum systems provides many examples for indirect cross fertilization between computing and non-computing applications.
