Hello Everyone,
The Aspuru-Guzik group will be starting group meetings again this
Friday with a special presentation from Dr. Man-Hong Yung. As stated
below, this meeting will be in Pfizer lecture hall (in the basement
floor of Mallinkrodt) instead of in the usual location because
Man-Hong plans to use chalkboards instead of slides. Abstract and
information is provided below.
=======================================
Title: An introductory lecture on quantum algorithms
Speaker: Man-Hong Yung
Time: Jan 11, 2:30 pm
Place: Pfizer lecture hall
Abstract: In this mini lecture, I will try to show you (particularly
for non-specialists) what a quantum algorithm is like. More
specifically, I will try to achieve this goal by first explaining how
a quantum version of Fourier transform is created. Through this
example, basic tools of quantum computation will be introduced. The
lecture materials are based on a book chapter I am developing; it will
give me some idea if the materials are suitable for teaching.
Therefore, questions and comments would be highly valuable during and
after the lecture. (No-question-is-considered-stupid rule will be enforced.)
