A self-contained, reader-friendly introduction to the principles and applications of quantum computing


Especially valuable to those without a prior knowledge of quantum mechanics, this electrical engineering text presents the concepts and workings of quantum information processing systems in a clear, straightforward, and practical manner. The book is written in a style that helps readers who are not familiar with non-classical information processing more easily grasp the essential concepts; only prior exposure to classical physics, basic digital design, and introductory linear algebra is assumed.


Quantum Computing: A Beginner's Introduction presents each topic in a tutorial style with examples, illustrations, and diagrams to clarify the material. Written by an experienced electrical engineering educator and author, this is a self-contained resource, with all the necessary pre-requisite material included within the text.


Coverage includes:


- Complex Numbers, Vector Space, and Dirac Notation
- Basics of Quantum Mechanics
- Matrices and Operators
- Boolean Algebra, Logic Gates and Quantum Information Processing
- Quantum Gates and Circuit
- Tensor Products, Superposition and Quantum Entanglement
- Teleportation and Superdense Coding
- Quantum Error Correction
- Quantum Algorithms
- Quantum Cryptography
