Reading List

Lecture notes which cover the whole course and which provide detailed pointers to additional reading will be made available. Standard books on the subject that might be of use are:

• Gruska, J. (1999) Quantum Computing. McGraw-Hill.
• Nielsen, M. and Chuang, I. L. (2000) Quantum Computation and Quantum Information. Cambridge University Press.
• Kitaev, A. Yu., Shen, A. H. and Vyalyi, M. N. (2001) Classical and Quantum Computing. Graduate Studies in Mathematics 47, American Mathematical Society.

On-line available courses elsewhere which can be consulted are:
