Introduction to Quantum Computing Part 2 of 3 - IPAM at UCLA

Institute for Pure & Applied Mathematics (IPAM) via YouTube

Overview

Dive into the second part of a three-part lecture series on quantum computing, presented by Fang Song from Portland State University at IPAM's Graduate Summer School on Post-quantum and Quantum Cryptography. Explore two major families of quantum algorithms: period finding (also known as Hidden Subgroup Problem HSP) and Grover's search. Examine Simon's algorithm, phase estimation, and the renowned quantum factoring algorithm by Shor/Kitaev. Discover the impact of these algorithms on cryptography, including potential breaks of cryptosystems, superposition attacks, and quantum rewinding. Enhance your understanding with suggested readings from Watrous qc notes and Childs' notes. This hour-long lecture, recorded on July 26, 2022, offers an in-depth look at advanced quantum computing concepts and their implications for the field of cryptography.
