A work in progress, though I am aiming to have a first draft by mid-April and be submitting not long after that.
List of chapters:
The usual introductory matter
How do we obtain Haar unitaries in an experimental setting?
Photons are Bosons so can simulate other Bosons.
Due to the nature of quantum computing, these tasks are more difficult than they would be classically.
A neat procedure to determine the Hamiltonian underlying a process with simple measurements. Experimentally demonstrated in a photonic quantum walk.
If for some reason you want to download and compile this you will need:
- LaTeX, including AMSmath packages (and probably some others but nothing too obscure)
- Pyxplot
- Gnuplot
- POVRay
