PS 360 - Quantum Computation This course is an introduction to quantum computing that surveys some of the most significant quantum algorithms and their implementations on quantum hardware. Topics covered include quantum states, quantum circuits and measurements, writing and running quantum programs, the quantum Fourier Transformation and phase estimation, and Shor’s factoring algorithm. Applications to cryptography, quantum error correction, superconducting qubits, and quantum chemistry will be discussed. Students will develop quantum programs and run them on IBM’s quantum computer making use of an industry-standard quantum computing interface.
Four credits.
Prerequisite(s): MA 170-180 and CS 111 or permission of instructor.
