Lecture

Quantum computing: basics

Description

This lecture covers the fundamentals of quantum computing, starting with the birth of quantum physics in the 1920s and leading up to recent advancements like Google's quantum supremacy announcement in 2019. Topics include qubits, superposition, measurement mysteries, entanglement, quantum gates, and quantum algorithms such as Grover's, Deutsch-Josza, Bernstein-Vazirani, Simon's, and Shor's. The lecture also introduces quantum gates like Hadamard and the oracle gate, and discusses quantum algorithms for problem-solving, emphasizing the efficiency of quantum computing compared to classical methods.
