Just another set of book recommendation on Quantum Computing in increasing level of sophistication: 1. Quantum Computing Explained by David McMahon 2. Quantum Computer Science by N David Mermin 3. Introduction to Quantum Computation and Quantum Information by Nielsen and Chuang 4. Introduction Optical Quantum Information Processing by Kok and Levitt 5. Quantum Information Theory by Mark Wilde Book 3 is indeed the most standard but it still misses a few important QC concepts which have recently got a great attention in the research community. These topics include continuous-variable QC and Measurement-based QC. These topics are covered in a very pedagogic way in book 4. Book 5 is for those who want to dive deeper into the theoretical aspects. Happy QC learning and Good luck :)
which book would you recommend for one who has read: Quantum Mechanics by Leonard Sussking Quantum Computing for everyone by Chris Bernhardt Feynmann Lectures on Quantum Mechanics(at least till first 7 chapters) Qiskit Textbook on Quantum Computation
I used book 3 for introduction and book 6 for reference. I ’m doing research on quantum error correction codes ,and book 3 actually helped me understand them for the first time. For quantum mechanics , I used the 3rd vol of Feynman's lectures , which i think is extremely suitable for quantum computing based readers.
I found that lectures too .....Im a math degree student and i want to do my grade work in quatum computing but for finance or data areas wich book or article do you recommend me?
Hats off to Ike and mike. I was baffled how hard this book was in 2011. I had kept this book for about 10 years hoping one day I would be able to read it. I am 30 now and finally could attempt to read first few pages. Yay !!
One way to think of quantum physics is that the wave particle duality of light and matter in the form of electrons is forming a blank canvas for us (atoms) to interact with; we have waves over a period of time and particles as an uncertain future unfolds. The mathematics of quantum mechanics represents the physics of time with classical physics represents processes over a ‘period of time’ as in Newton's differential equations. In this theory the mathematics of quantum mechanics represents geometry, the Planck Constant ħ=h/2π is linked to 2π circular geometry representing a two dimensional aspect of 4π spherical three-dimensional geometry. We have to square the wave function Ψ² representing the radius being squared r² because the process is relative to the two-dimensional spherical 4π surface. We then see 4π in Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle ∆×∆pᵪ≥h/4π representing our probabilistic temporal three dimensions life. The charge of the electron e² and the speed of light c² are both squared for the same geometrical reason. We have this concept because the electromagnetic force forms a continuous exchange of energy forming what we experience as time. The spontaneous absorption and emission of light photon ∆E=hf energy is forming potential photon energy into the kinetic energy of electrons. Kinetic Eₖ=½mv² energy is the energy of what is actually happening. An uncertain probabilistic future is continuously coming into existence with the exchange of photon energy.
Really good stuff - thanks for the reading list. The fictional selection was fun; it is nice to give laymen access to these topics through tangents. The "Quantum Spy" reminded me of the 2012 film "The Traveling Salesman" a piece considering the implications of solving P versus NP problem. Someone should write a quantum computing take on that topic (hint hint).
For laymen that prefer german language, I highly recommend: 1. "Quantum Computing verstehen: Grundlagen - Anwendungen - Perspektiven" Nice Author, very charming and a good explainer. Enjoyed the talks to him. 2. - "Quantum-Machine-Learning" from Franz Zickert. 3. - And the best book about Computers in general. "Digital Computer Electronics" from A.P.Malvino. If you are very bad in english, like me, you could also read the contemporary documents from Planck, Heisenberg, Schrödinger, Einstein, ... in original german. As a self-taught, that helped me a lot. You can successively understand how they developed their ideas and made their conclusions.
Thanks for the German language recommendation. I'm learning German on the side actually, so this is a perfect combination. I read the "Vorwort" and am interested already. Many thanks!
Learning the masters - even if their methods and tools are dated is always very inspiring and insightful. I treasure my copies of Dirac's a text book of quantum mechanics, landau and lifshitz series, feynmans books including his lectures on computation, and lo and behold Principia by Sir Isaac Newton ..
@@subhashishbarik4319 A lot actually...so much that Oppenheimer who led the Manhattan project went to Germany to study as he felt that the US was far behind Germany in new developments. In acknowledgement of the German contribution to qm a quantum state is called "eigenstates" and energy of enginestates are called eigen energies ..and so on.
Still cannot understand why people like Griffith's book. The last chapters (kinda advanced) are good but as a introductory book on QM I find it conceptually disorganized, specially the first 4 chapters or so.
Thank you so much. I read a short book years ago about quantum computing that was not on your list, and one day I realized I maybe had the gist of it. Density matrix calculations of the nmr spectrum s of fatty acids could be done, I think they were slightly too big for the average computers RAM. I know a professor, more than one actually that would want to do the simulations.
The synopsis is that fatty acids have a surprisingly complex imaging phenomenon in MRI images due to j coupling. The j coupling can cause cancellation by summation within a pixel/voxel on certain MRI scans. It's currently a phenomenon with no attached analysis, but it may be possible to analyze fatty acid composition in a MRI image or spectrum via
Just another recommendation , at least for self study folks I recommend shankar much more than Griffiths as its just not as good , make sure you read up on basic Linear algebra (which is essential for QC anyways) . and if this is the first time reading QM altogether then read Quantum mechanics the theoretical minimum then shankar (principles of Quantum mechanics)
I am trying to learn about quantum repeaters and switches. Basically, engineering of quantum communication systems. Have not found anything. Really appreciate any suggestion.
There are no repeaters in quantum computing. Not in the classical sense. Check no-cloning theorem -> quantum state cannot be copied, which means that (in general) qbit cannot be copied -> no repeater (again: in general) is possible
@@andrzejgajewski359 You are right, repeaters cannot be used in a classical manner. But quantum repeaters are very much a thing. They rely on entanglement swapping of link level entanglements to create end to end entanglement. please refer ruclips.net/video/mr-kAG6KwMA/видео.html
"A Modern Approach to Quantum Mechanics" by John L. Townsend is a far better book than by Griffith. After Townsend read QM by Shankar or Schiff. Now you are ready for Sakurai (vol 1 & 2). For the mathematics background read the Mathematical Methods etc. book by Sadri Hassani followed by his Mathematical Physics book.
U r a great orator and definitely a great teacher . Can u suggest QUANTUM PHYSICS books 📚 which does not have any mathematical data, Any body from Non engineering or science background I hope I have able to conveyed the message
MIn 1:17... " ... when in graduate school and started my PhD in QuantumComputing, I did not know how bits worked or how even classical computers worked..." is this a marketing gig? " When I started Calculus I did not really know what numbers were..."
Actually i am studying computer science but since i heard and knew about this field i am super motivated to study it , i have a general question can someone who have bachelor degree or engineering degree + good self study this books and also Qiskit can he have a chance to get promoted a job in industrie or in research ? Thanks
Yes you can. But in my opinion to truly understand it you need to understand the basics Physics and Computer Science to understand QC. This is coming from someone with a Physics background. At some point, I will have to start studying classical Computer Science then link it and apply it to Quantum Computing
thank you for all these rex. one problem - my security-conscious browsers don't like your link for Girvin lecture notes: either no httpS &/or certificate issue. can u fix? thanks again.
can you guys plz do a video on projects that you can make that are specifically the best for qc languages like qiskit? like what can i do with with qiskit
I want to learn this, I really do. But there's this pressure of doing job, earning enough.. How the heck I focus on this if I can't feed myself? If I dive into these books, then I will become old ..how will I "finance" myself where my friends and families would be enjoying life and I will be just getting old "studying" this.
Might I recommend "The Best Book on Quantum Computing"? Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Overseeing a great theoretical brawl. Einstein and Bohr about to enthrall, Their theories of physics, the grandest of all. Einstein, solid, a legend, a rock, "God does not play dice," he said with a mock. His faith in determinism, it wasn’t a shock, “The universe is steady, a mechanical clock!” But Bohr, the Dane, with a knowing smile, Said, "Albert, your thinking is just juvenile. Quantum mechanics, with its versatile style, Doesn't it make our old physics futile?" "Particles," said Bohr, "are peculiar creatures, ‘’Unpredictable” one of their salient features. They’ll be in two places, ethereal preachers, Until we observe them, becoming their teachers." Einstein's genius, profound and superb, ‘A cat both dead and alive? That’s absurd! For your spooky action I haven’t the words And your quantum theory? well it’s for the birds. Then Bohr retorted, so sharp and too true, "Albert, please stop telling God what to do!” The quantum world, while seeming askew, Unravels her mysteries for the curious few. As Humpty crashed, the words rang along, A haunting echo, a harrowing song. Deep In the quiet, that followed the throng, Whispered the words, “Einstein was wrong.”
I recommend, when entering a leading edge research field which is in its infancy, to ignore most of the text books written for undergraduates etc. In research areas of this kind, rely on the gut feel and drag in ideas and approaches from your experiences as a scientist and equally as a non-scientist. Read material other disciplines such as biology, philosophy, economics, engineering, art, design. If you wish to follow the crowd or the paths already travelled then by all means buy these 10 books and read them. How many of the authors of these books are non-US citizens?
Hello, I wanted to ask about the mention of “Introduction to Quantum Mechanics” by David Griffiths. In the video, I believe the second edition of the book was shown, however I believe now there is a third edition. Did this edition add a lot of valuable content to the original text Griffiths wrote or were there just minor adjustments? I ask out of curiosity since I know there is a lot of relevant information in the field.
I don't understand the basics… for example, entangled particles… there have to be two, How do you know which one to choose?, like, which particles are entangled when choosing them to measure them, they say they can be photons, they take a photon, how? They put it in a jar, they take it a thousand kilometers away from the other photon, and they measure it?, and the other photon changes state a thousand kilometers away, the process doesn't make sense, I understand more the entanglement and not the process
"You are not a physics person if you don't have the book"-is slightly offending there are a bunch of other great books for Basic Quantum Mechanics, e.g Messiah, Cohen-Tanouji, Landau-Lifshitz...
@@siamsama2581 I am afraid you are right as a pragmatic German I would use Greiner or Nolting from the point of a Physics Nerds (and unfortunatelly most of the lecturers in quantum mechanics are belong to these ) these books are somewhat "dirty" because they are to simple
To all those who are attracted towards the Quantum nature of computer should know that there is nothing great about Quantum Computing. Actually, it is the Engineering and Physics part of Quantum Computer hardware that is exciting. Majority of the people think that Quantum computing (programming) part is exciting mainly because hype created around it. No one will show real intricacies of Hardware development.
Quantum computing is a result of quantum mechanics. I think many researchers and employees in the field start with learning the physics first and then transition into emerging fields.
