Basics of Quantum Computation : Part 1
de.arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0407064 [HTML, PDF, Postscript, GZIP]
|
|
The aim of this textbook is to bridge in regard of quantum computation what proves to be a considerable threshold even to the usual science trained readership between the level of science popularization, and on the other hand, the presently available more encyclopedic textbooks. In this respect the present textbook is aimed to be a short, simple, rigorous and direct introduction, addressing itself only to quantum computation proper. more info

The Fear of Physics site actually should have been called No Fear of Physics: It is organised by a team of people that "love physics" and that "created this site to be a friendly, non-technical place for you to come and "play" with the laws of physics for a while." So it provides very instructive and sometimes funny virtual experiments predominantly dealing with concepts of classical mechanics. Nevertheless some aspects of other topics such as acoustics, atomic physics, or relativity are also considered. Besides this virtual experiments that come along with explanations, the service includes a physics directory and homework help that illustrates how to use physical laws and equations to solve special physics problems. more info

Quantum Computation
de.arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/9812037 [HTML, PDF, Postscript, TAR, GZIP]
|
|
This review is about to tell the story of theoretical quantum computation. It begins with background on theoretical computer science, Turing machines and Boolean circuits. In light of these models, quantum computers are defined, and the issue of universal quantum gates are discussed. Quantum algorithms are explained. Much attention is devoted to understanding what the origins of the quantum computational power are, and what the limits of this power are. The possible implications of quantum computation on fundamental physical questions, such as the transition from quantum to classical physics are discussed. more info
