With derivations, exercises, and solutions, this book examines the theoretical aspects of quantum computing and focuses on several candidates of a working quantum computer, evaluating them according to the DiVincenzo criteria. It covers theoretical tools, such as vectors, matrices, quantum gates, and integral and Fourier transforms.
Covering both theory and progressive experiments, Quantum Computing: From Linear Algebra to Physical Realizations explains how and why superposition and entanglement provide the enormous computational power in quantum computing. This self-contained, classroom-tested book is divided into two sections, with the first devoted to the theoretical aspects of quantum computing and the second focused on several candidates of a working quantum computer, evaluating them according to the DiVincenzo criteria. Looking at the ways in which quantum computing can become reality, this book delves into enough theoretical background and experimental research to support a thorough understanding of this promising field.
