This book, first published in 2006, gives a self-contained introduction to the field for physicists, mathematicians and computer scientists who want to know more about this exciting subject. After a step-by-step introduction to the quantum bit (qubit) and its main properties, the author presents the necessary background in quantum mechanics. The core of the subject, quantum computation, is illustrated by a detailed treatment of three quantum algorithms: Deutsch, Grover and Shor. The final chapters are devoted to the physical implementation of quantum computers, including the most recent aspects, such as superconducting qubits and quantum dots, and to a short account of quantum information. Written at a level suitable for undergraduates in physical sciences, no previous knowledge of quantum mechanics is assumed, and only elementary notions of physics are required. The book includes many short exercises, with solutions available to instructors through solutions@cambridge.org. 517 3 $aA Short Introduction to Quantum Information & Quantum Computation 606 $aQuantum computers 606 $aQuantum theory 615 0$aQuantum computers. 615 0$aQuantum theory. 676 $a004.1 686 $a54.51$2bcl 686 $a33.23$2bcl 686 $a54.10$2bcl 700 $aLe Bellac$b Michel$053715 702 $aForcrand-Millard$b Patricia de 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784341003321 996 $aShort introduction to quantum information and quantum computation$9808657 997 $aUNINA
