A self-contained treatment of the fundamentals of quantum computing<br />
<br />
This clear, practical book takes quantum computing out of the realm of <br />
theoretical physics and teaches the fundamentals of the field to students and <br />
professionals who have not had training in quantum computing or quantum <br />
information theory, including computer scientists, programmers, electrical <br />
engineers, mathematicians, physics students, and chemists. The author cuts <br />
through the conventions of typical jargon-laden physics books and instead <br />
presents the material through his unique "how-to" approach and friendly, <br />
conversational style.<br />
<br />
Readers will learn how to carry out calculations with explicit details and will <br />
gain a fundamental grasp of:<br />
<br />
<br />
*<br />
<br />
Quantum mechanics<br />
*<br />
<br />
Quantum computation<br />
*<br />
<br />
Teleportation<br />
*<br />
<br />
Quantum cryptography<br />
*<br />
<br />
Entanglement<br />
*<br />
<br />
Quantum algorithms<br />
*<br />
<br />
Error correction <br />
<br />
A number of worked examples are included so readers can see how quantum <br />
computing is done with their own eyes, while answers to similar end-of-chapter <br />
problems are provided for readers to check their own work as they learn to <br />
master the information.<br />
<br />
Ideal for professionals and graduate-level students alike, Quantum Computing <br />
Explained delivers the fundamentals of quantum computing readers need to be able <br />
to understand current research papers and go on to study more advanced quantum <br />
texts. <br />
