Introduction to Quantum Computing for Everyone 2 (edX)

Introduction to Quantum Computing for Everyone 2 (edX)

This course focuses on the mathematics, programming, operations, and algorithms of quantum computing. A follow-on to Intro to QC for Everyone 1, this course delves deeper into the mathematical basis for quantum computing and the programming that makes it a reality. Students will be taught all of the mathematical concepts they need to know, build up confidence and experience with individual and small groups of operations, then learn a sequence of important algorithms.

Introduction to Quantum Information (Coursera)

The course provides an introduction to quantum information at a beginning graduate level. It focuses on the fundamental understanding of how information is processed with quantum systems and how the quantum properties apply to computing and communication tasks. The course begins by presenting quantum theory as the framework of information processing. Quantum systems are introduced with single and two qubits. Axioms of quantum theory such as states, dynamics, and measurements are explained as preparation, evolution, and readout of qubits. Quantum computing and quantum communication are explained.

Linear Algebra IV: Orthogonality & Symmetric Matrices and the SVD (edX)

This course takes you through roughly five weeks of MATH 1554, Linear Algebra, as taught in the School of Mathematics at The Georgia Institute of Technology. In the first part of this course you will explore methods to compute an approximate solution to an inconsistent system of equations that have no solutions. Our overall approach is to center our algorithms on the concept of distance.
