Quantum Computing

with Qiskit
Qubits, Quantum Gate and Measurement
• A quantum computation is a collection of three elements
 A quantum register or a set of quantum register.
 A unitary matrix, which is used to execute a given quantum algorithm.
 Measurement to extract information we need.

• Quantum circuit model


• Universal quantum computer
Quantum Properties
• Superposition
The linear combination of two or more state vectors is another state vector
in the same Hilbert space and describes another state of the system.

• Entanglement
Two systems are in a special case of quantum mechanical superposition
called entanglement if the measurement of one system is correlated with
the state of the other system in a way that is stronger than correlations
in the classical world.

Quantum Gates
• Quantum Operators
• In gate-based quantum computers, these operator used to evolve the state.
• Unitary and reversable.
• Single qubit gate: rotation in block sphere.

• There exist universal quantum gates set.

Group Theory Here.

Single Qubit Gates
Quantum Gates in Qiskit
• Very Important!
• The LSB (Least Significant Bit) is from right to left in qiskit.

Also, this show the difference between entangle and separate state

Qiskit Overview
The Qiskit Elements
Terra, the ‘earth’ element, is the foundation on
which the rest of the software lies.

Aer, the ‘air’ element, permeates all Qiskit


elements. For accelerating development via
simulators, emulators and debuggers

Aqua, the ‘water’ element, is the element of life.


For building algorithms and applications.

Ignis, the ‘fire’ element, is dedicated to fighting


noise and errors and to forging a new path

The Deutsch Algorithm
• The first to demonstrate quantum over classical computing.
Deutsch Problem:
Given a black box that implement some Boolean function 𝑓: 0,1 → {0,1}.
We are promised that the function is either constant or balanced.

constant balanced

require two function evaluations to figure out the answer.


The Deutsch Algorithm
• We need only one query on a quantum computer !

𝑓 is Boolean function.

Addition module 2
Phase Kick Back
• Useful trick in many quantum algorithm.
Consider Quantum Black box function 𝑓
The Deutsch Algorithm
Qiskit Example

constant
balanced
output = 0
output = 1
Extension : The Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm
• This time the function 𝑓 is a function from n bits string to a bit.
The Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm
Summary
Qiskit Example
Improvement?
2𝑛
• The worst case in classical take us +1
2
• In quantum we need only one query ….. But, if there exist error ?

• That’s why we have Bernstein-Vazirani, Simon’s algorithm.


Where are we now?
NISQ Quantum Computing
• Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum

• Circuit depth is important.

Depth = 6 in this case
