TS1: Tutorial on Quantum Computing in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics: TS1.01
- Cezary Mazurek
Description
Participants explore the fundamentals and applications of quantum computing in applied mathematics and mechanics through an interactive tutorial that delves into revolutionary concepts and simulation tools.
The presentation will outline the activities of the PSNC, the challenges addressed with the use of cutting-edge data processing infrastructure (including quantum computers), as well as the scope of the project under which the tutorial is being delivered.
The presentation will address two topics. First, a brief introduction to quantum computing to capture its current landscape. Second, an overview of gate-based quantum algorithms and their applications in mechanical design, optimization, system dynamics, and machine learning.
The hands-on session on the basis of quantum computing will introduce participants creating quantum circuits, and with using this framework basic quantum phenomena such as superposition, entanglement will be explained.
The second part of the hands-on session will dive deep into the realm of quantum algorithms. The participants will be shown how some quantum and hybrid algorithms work and can be used in real-world applications and use-cases such as factoring, optimization and machine learning.
