Summary: We aim to establish a systematic quantum zero-error information theory by considering quantum effects in zero-error communication. Powerful tools from algebraic geometry, operator theory, mathematical programming and entanglement theory will be used to develop techniques to estimate zero-error capacity, which will then be applied in other fields. Our findings will provide communication protocols to achieve perfect transmission for classical/quantum information using noisy quantum channels. With global implications for building highly reliable quantum communication networks, the project advances research into the physical realisation of quantum communication and promotes Australia's place in this new research field.
