This textbook addresses and introduces new developments in the field of quantum information and computing (QIC) for a primary audience of undergraduate students.
Developments over the past few decades have spurred the need for QIC courseware at major research institutions. To address this, the present 2nd edition of a highly accessible textbook/reference broadens the exposure of QIC science for the undergraduate market. The subject matter is introduced in such a way so that it is accessible to students with only a first-year calculus background. Greater accessibility allows a broader range of academic offerings.
Topics and features:
- Introduces beginning undergraduate students to quantum theory and developments in QIC, without exposure to upper-level physics and mathematics
- Contains a new chapter on Adiabatic Quantum Computing
- Integrates Mathematica-based software examples and projects, which offers a "hands-on" experience and facilitates navigation of difficult abstract concepts
- Offers helpful links to additional exercises, problems, and solution manuals
- Facilitates a more holistic approach to the teaching of difficult concepts, incorporating symbolic manipulation software
- Provides new material on Quantum Error Correction
- Allows a broad-range of course offerings spanning physics, engineering, math and computer science
This unique introductory textbook can serve courses offered in university physics, engineering, math, and definitely computer science departments. Use of Mathematica software allows a fast learning curve for students who have limited experience with scientific programming.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本教科書針對本科生的主要讀者群，介紹了量子資訊與計算（QIC）領域的新發展。
過去幾十年的發展促使主要研究機構對QIC課程教材的需求。為了滿足這一需求，本書的第二版擴大了本科市場對QIC科學的接觸。該主題的介紹方式使得僅具備一年級微積分背景的學生也能輕鬆理解。更高的可接觸性使得學術課程的範圍更為廣泛。
主題與特色：
- 向初學的本科生介紹量子理論及QIC的發展，無需接觸高年級的物理和數學。
- 包含一個關於絕熱量子計算的新章節。
- 整合基於Mathematica的軟體範例和專案，提供「動手」的體驗，並幫助理解困難的抽象概念。
- 提供有用的連結，以獲取額外的練習題、問題和解答手冊。
- 促進對困難概念的更全面教學方法，結合符號運算軟體。
- 提供關於量子錯誤修正的新材料。
- 允許涵蓋物理、工程、數學和計算機科學的廣泛課程設置。
這本獨特的入門教科書可以用於大學物理、工程、數學以及計算機科學系的課程。使用Mathematica軟體使得對於有限科學程式設計經驗的學生來說，學習曲線變得更為平緩。
