Quantum Computing for Computer Scientists
1:28:22·2018·undergraduate level·Research Seminar
This seminar rigorously introduces quantum computing from a computer science perspective, detailing quantum bits, superposition, and quantum logic gates through linear algebra. It demonstrates the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm to illustrate quantum advantage and explores quantum entanglement.
This talk discards hand-wavy pop-science metaphors and answers a simple question: from a computer science perspective, how can a quantum computer outperform a classical computer? Attendees will learn the following:
- Representing computation with basic linear algebra (matrices and vectors)
- The computational workings of qbits, superposition, and quantum logic gates
