Quantum Circuits: Model and Computation

This lecture introduces quantum circuits and the model of quantum computation, explaining how any quantum computation corresponds to a unitary inclusion. It covers the general idea that quantum circuits have a unitary solution, and how to extract information from quantum circuits. The lecture also discusses simulating quantum systems and the importance of unitary evolution. It explores the concept of quantum parallelism and the precision required in quantum circuits. The presentation delves into the definitions of qubits and corresponding circuits, emphasizing the complexity and universal sets in quantum computation. The lecture concludes with a discussion on the global lighthouse and the physical aspects of quantum circuits.
