Quantum-Computing-Cooperation

Quantum computation is a growing field at the intersection of physics, computer science, electrical engineering, and applied math. This course provides an introduction to the basics of quantum computation. Specifically, we will cover some fundamental quantum mechanics, survey quantum circuits, and introduce the most significant quantum algorithms. Furthermore, we will survey advanced topics towards the end of the course. In the past, these topics have included quantum error correction, quantum communication, and applications to fields ranging from machine learning to chemistry. This course is self-contained and does not require any prior knowledge of quantum mechanics.
