| Abstract | "This comprehensive and self-consistent textbook presents quantum information science, a rapidly evolving interdisciplinary scientific field that will change modern computer science. The book is divided into four parts. The first part starts with a gentle introduction to some important mathematical concepts, followed by a discussion of computational models, linear algebra, and quantum mechanics. The second part explains more advanced topics of quantum mechanics, which are necessary to describe the decoherence of quantum states. The third part includes a presentation of entanglement, early quantum algorithms and quantum simulation, focussing on computational problems that quantum computers can solve faster than classical machines. The last part presents superconducting devices, a promising architecture for the implementation of quantum computers. With more than 200 figures and 100 exercises (with solutions), this book is ideal for a master's course on quantum information processing. Readers starting a master's program or a graduate course in physics, computer science, mathematics or quantum engineering will develop a good understanding of the fundamental concepts of the field"-- Provided by publisher. |
