FALL 2001
Room 104, Love Building.
Tuesday, 3:35-4:50 pm.
-----------------------------------------
      In Spring 2001 we covered foundational material on quantum computation. We will begin the Fall term with a discussion of Shor's factorization algorithm, discrete logarithms, and the hidden subgroup problem. We will then proceed to a discussion of quantum error correction, various quantum encryption protocols, quantum information, and entropy.
      Our basic references will be the book Quantum Computation and Quantum Information by Michael Nielsen and Isaac Chuang, and John Preskill's lecture notes on Quantum Computing.
