Qc_book_list

I hope this repo can help those who want to self-study and explore the awesome of quantum computing.

if any resources link having Copyright / License / Issues please post a new issue.

few points to address:

  1. please support the author, those pdf are open access by universities, authors, or organizations.
  2. welcome open a new issue or a new pull request for books suggestion, please read CONTRIBUTING.md.
  3. I only recommend those stand-out books, you can read with the order.

Contents

🆕💻🧮 new to cs and QC(all-in-one, pre-require math):

  • Qiskit Textbook by qiskit contributor, keep on updating and having much friendly introduction content, in high school math.
  • Lecture notes by John Watrous, contains most of the deep-level content of quantum computing.
  • PSI Quantum resources by Perimeter Scholars International, online learning modules enable motivated students and physics enthusiasts to study graduate-level theoretical physics independently at their own pace.

🆕💻 new to quantum computing:

💪 Good Exercise:

  • Xanadu Quantum Codebook by Catalina Albornoz, Guillermo Alonso, Mikhail Andrenkov, and more. it is a fantastic codebook that gives you a good basic understanding of quantum computing, you should go over it before going for more exercise or content, if you get stuck hard check the walkthrough from Owen Lockwood.
  • IBM Quantum Challenge by the qiskit community, each year has a different topic, where you can learn more about quantum computing, if you need help, go to qiskit slack, each challenge has different channels, where you can search for previous hints or questions asked.
  • QOSF Monthly Challenges by qosf contributor, contains a lot of challenges and interesting topics in quantum computing.

🎓 Certificate:

Quantum computing (theory) is at the intersection of math, physics, and computer science. (Experiment also can involve electrical engineering.) Eventually, you will want to learn aspects of all of these fields, but when starting you can use any for an entry into the field. Within each field, the subjects you will want to know are:

  • Physics: First learn quantum mechanics. At more advanced levels, various aspects of quantum information overlap with AMO, condensed matter, and high energy.
  • Math: First linear algebra and probability. Later my preferences would be to learn some group and representation theory, random matrix theory, and functional analysis, but eventually, most fields of math overlap with quantum information, and other researchers may emphasize different areas of math.
  • Computer Science: Most theory topics are relevant although are less crucial at first: i.e. algorithms, cryptography, information theory, error-correcting codes, optimization, complexity, and machine learning. If you haven't had any CS theory exposure, undergrad algorithms are a good place to start because they will show you CS-theory ways of thinking, including ideas like the asymptotic analysis.

🔒 Quantum cryptography:

my list of quantum-cryptography repo stars

  • Practical introduction to quantum-safe cryptography a course from IBM quantum, specifically designed for both expert and non-expert developers who want to learn about how quantum computing poses a risk to existing cryptography as new quantum algorithms are able break existing encryption schemes.
  • Awesome-post-quantum contain a curated list of resources about post-quantum cryptography.

🎶🎨 Quantum music and art:

  • Quantum music playground Playground for composing music using quantum states. Implemented as a Max for Live device in Ableton Live 11, and includes a MicroQiskit quantum simulator. Free, open source, Apache 2.0 licensed. Developed by James L. Weaver, @JavaFXpert on Twitter.
  • There’s A Burgeoning Quantum Art Scene This article briefly conclude the possibilities of quantum art, by Russell Huffman, and there is lots of creative art work project can be found in his medium.
  • Quantum fractals its explain some moethod to visualizing Quantum Computing using fractals, infinitely complex patterns that are self-similar across different scales, by Wiktor Mazin, Principal Data Scientist and IBM Quantum Ambassador.

🎮 Quantum game

  • Awesome Quantum Games by Junyu Huang, contain a list of game that contain the component of quantum mechanics, help to learn quantum computing quickly.
  • List of Quantum Games by kiedos, contain a list of games including categories.

💻🔍📚 Cool software sources:

  • Quantum Open Source Foundation organization that supporting the development and standardization of open tools for quantum computing. Where you can find learning resources, list of open sources quantum software, qosf mentorship information which any background with related experience can join and more.
  • Open Sources Physics provides curriculum resources that engage students in physics, computation, and computer modeling. Computational physics and computer modeling provide students with new ways to understand, describe, explain, and predict physical phenomena. even though its a very old website, but its worth to explore, if you interest in physics, where you can find useful resources and cool simulation.
