A self-contained, reader-friendly introduction to the principles and applications of quantum computing Especially valuable to those without a prior knowledge of quantum mechanics, this electrical engineering text presents the concepts and workings of quantum information processing systems in a clear, straightforward, and practical manner. The book is written in a style that helps readers who are not familiar with non-classical information processing more easily grasp the essential concepts; only prior exposure to classical physics, basic digital design, and introductory linear algebra is assumed. Quantum Computing: A Beginner's Introduction presents each topic in a tutorial style with examples, illustrations, and diagrams to clarify the material. Written by an experienced electrical engineering educator and author, this is a self-contained resource, with all the necessary pre-requisite material included within the text. Coverage includes: - Complex Numbers, Vector Space, and Dirac Notation - Basics of Quantum Mechanics - Matrices and Operators - Boolean Algebra, Logic Gates and Quantum Information Processing - Quantum Gates and Circuit - Tensor Products, Superposition and Quantum Entanglement - Teleportation and Superdense Coding - Quantum Error Correction - Quantum Algorithms - Quantum Cryptography
