Class Objectives
/Class Outline |
Quantum computers are devices that perform calculations based on quantum mechanics and are considered promising for applications in the field of materials science. In this lecture, we will implement several quantum algorithms and use quantum computers on the cloud to learn how quantum chemical calculations are performed, and how issues such as "noise" faced by quantum computers affect the calculation results. |

Suggestions on
Preparation and
Review |
Understanding the basic syntax of Python and how to use Google Colaboratory beforehand will make the learning process smoother. For instance, sections 1-0 and 1-1 of the above "Introduction to Python Programming" would be useful references.
While quantum computing will be explained during the lectures, reading "量子コンピュータの頭の中――計算しながら理解する量子アルゴリズムの世界" beforehand will enhance your understanding further. |
