ALGEBRAIC AND COMBINATORIAL ASPECTS OF QUANTUM COMPUTING
Professor Peter Cameron, Mathematics Research Centre, Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London

Abstract: Quantum computing is a topic where theory runs ahead of practice. My talk will be a general introduction to some of the theory. I will talk about the Hidden Subgroup problem (which generalises Factorisation and Discrete Logarithm). I will also briefly describe quantum error correction.

This seminar was held at the Department of Computer Science, Royal Holloway, University of London on 6 November 2000.
