Marie Ericsson
Description
In the first lecture I will talk about the history of
quantum theory and the theoretical development of
quantum computation. I will talk about superposition
and entanglement, important concepts to understand
the power of quantum computing. The different
algorithms that are available for a quantum computer,
such as searching algorithm and factoring algorithm, will
be discussed as well as quantum cryptography that help
us to share secrets when we cannot use RSA, the
traditional crypto system used today that quantum
computers can break.
