Overview
Learn about quantum circuit models and essential mathematical concepts in this hour-long video lesson covering fundamental aspects of quantum information. Explore circuits and quantum circuits before diving into mathematical foundations including inner products, orthogonality, orthonormality, and projections. Master key quantum mechanics concepts like projective measurements and the irrelevance of global phases. Examine fundamental limitations in quantum information through the no-cloning theorem and challenges in discriminating non-orthogonal states. Access additional course materials including written content, Qiskit implementations, PDF slides, and a badging exam through the IBM Quantum Learning platform.
