This talk discards hand-wavy pop-science metaphors and answers a simple question: from a computer science perspective, how can a quantum computer outperform a classical computer? Attendees will learn the following:
- Representing computation with basic linear algebra (matrices and vectors)
- The computational workings of qbits, superposition, and quantum logic gates
- Solving the Deutsch oracle problem: the simplest problem where a quantum computer outperforms classical methods
- Bonus topics: quantum entanglement and teleportation
The talk concludes with a live demonstration of quantum entanglement on a real-world quantum computer, and a demo of the Deutsch oracle problem implemented in Q# with the Microsoft Quantum Development Kit. This talk assumes no prerequisite knowledge, although comfort with basic linear algebra (matrices, vectors, matrix multiplication) will ease understanding.

Mathematics is the only universal language in nature. You can't understand qc and qm with words or analogies. You have to know math well.
This is excellent - thank you so much ! Incredible clear and straight with easy (enough) examples for self-studying. Yet, In Defense of some Pop-science I also recommend the „bananaworld“ from Jeffrey Bub
Why did you bother creating this 1 and a half hour long presentation? Why did you bother studying all of this stuff? Just look up some fancy sentences on the "quantum computer" page on Wikipedia and make a 5 minutes video! Maybe dress as a very funny proton too :) . This guy has 4 times your views, take example ispast.info/losk/v-deo/m5B_kYzJ1oOnim0.html. Now, for real, thank you, I actually watched this some months ago and I came back and wanted to say that this is really the only helpful source I found on the subject, and also this could hardly be any better. I find this stuff really cool, everything you explained to me feels like just about to slip out of the boundaries of what we intuitively know is possible, but it actually never does.
The crowd looked like the man in black waiting room.
Why do quantum operations have to be reversible?
Just the way the universe works
I love quantum computers too
I understood mostly what he told i think except why you want to send 2 classical bits to someone just to "teleport" one Q-bit. 2 for 1 sounds inefficent. And when you need two Qu-bits as Input for your box to figure what the box does it sounds kinda unfair to compare it with one classical bit. If we would put 2 classical bits in the black box and get 2 out at the same time we would also be able to tell what the box does just as the Q-bits.
Teleportation is the only way to send a full-fidelity quantum state over the network without loss. Quantum computers still win with a two-wire black box because it compares quantum computers to reversible classical computers.
Krista Jacko Josza, my dear old friend. If youre reading this then let me appologise for my behaviour. You were, and i imagine still are, the best friend anyone could wish for. Please dont hate me, in aldult life ive been diagnosed with many mental problems. As a kid i loved you dearly and im sorry i never said so. Please take care and i send love to your dad, mum and sisters. If you.can find it in your heart, please forgive me. Im a wanty lol. Xx
I'm surprised that wokesters didn't shit themselves over term quantum supremacy..
It has been replaced by the term quantum advantage, yes. A welcome change!
It's a long story but but the CIA has been harassing me (regarding my discovered intellectual property) and attempting to commit Piracy regarding the Theory of Everything but just so everyone knows who wants to analyze the Fundamental Principal behind the Theory of Everything (TOE) can be expressed by connection to the equation *e^(iπ) + 1 = 0* (where e is approximately 2.7182818284590452356 and i represents √(-1) ) This equation basically reduces to -1 + 1 = 0. The (TOE) does NOT require time to solve for it. *Don't worry when the time variable disappears.* I don't want to provide too much information. This way professors and students can review it without having to worry about piracy (sadly, especially from those you think are meant to protect the law) *Once you find it out please publish it*. I have been hiding it. The CIA has offered me a job and money for it. Please stand up for scientists and GLOBAL learning. You can figure it out.
This guy got paid in Diet Coke. Also, nice talk
Kinda sad that there were like 3 people in the room
I was a bit disappointed at the time but lots of people online seem to have enjoyed it so it all worked out in the end!
If the values of the qbit vector can be complex numbers, with the condition that v[0]^2 + v[1]^2 = 1, say you had v = {i, √2} which satisfies the condition. How do you interpret the probabilities that the qbit is 0 or 1? -100% and 200%?
You're missing absolute value, it's |v[0]|² + |v[1]|² = 1. So |i|² = 1. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_value#Complex_numbers
Very very good tutorial (I am a computer science Ph.D. candidate). One interesting piece of information, the instructor of this video left Microsoft.

A very nice, easy to follow and exhaustive introduction. Really love the speaker!
He's constantly saying what he said at 13:57 , flip bottom two rows of identity matrix. But immediately next he does a matrix transformation which is (4x4 c-not transformation applied on unit vector in 4-dim) . Though the output is same, the most accurate way of saying is the last 2 columns flipped (kind of basis vectors).
Yes that's the explanation that 3blue1brown is fond of. However, there's more than one way to look at matrix transformation; change-of-basis is only one of them.
One of the clearest explanations I've ever seen

Another math element that may help some in accepting the weirdness of quantum physics is the introduction of negative probability, itself a concept hard to grasp, but a valid approach to mathematically describing intermediate states that a quantum system may realize on its way to the final state as detected by a measurement.
It makes no sense to me that you can complicate with it which is .measuring it...why does does it no it collapse in then?
I had a stroke trying to read this.
What?

44:57 i dont get how that is reversible it just sets the bit to zero how is that revirsible?
Because you store the input, that makes it reversible.

Oh no! What did you get stuck on? I am sure you can get it.

1:05:26 - I'm still confused about that myself. Maybe you can't transfer data through the entangled particles but if you can collapse it by measuring it at will, if there is a way to tell when that other particle collapses then the collapse itself can be the communication. I'm guessing what he's saying is that there is no way to tell when the state collapses so you can't use it to signal?
Yes correct, you cannot tell whether the state is collapsed.

Can you show an algorithm in Quantum computing?
I'm just going to pretend to understand this I have like a million question
@Andres Gomez learning the math is really the only way. Don't be intimidated - this is linear algebra that most people learn on their first or second day in class in a first-year undergrad course! 3blue1brown has a set of linear algebra videos that people really like.
@Andrew Helwer well the math is beyond me I came here trying to understand how a superposition could be created? Also I still dont understand how this allows Qbit to be able to process information faster then a traditional computer? I'm not a computer scientist but I still want grasp how this can be possible
Go ahead and ask!
he is cute
Love you.
It's because they are connected via hyperdimensional geometry and are essentially at the same location in this hyperdimensional space. It's all derived by the 8d packing of fields in the e8 lattice, the subsection of it projected down to the next lower dimension, and that dimensional projection is then itself projected to the next lower dimension, etc. Till you get to a 3d "quantum foam" of 20 groups of Planck scale tetrahedra which twist around a central point, who's twist states correlate to quantum mechanics, quantum gravity perturbations, and wave particle duality. Visually similar to the vibrating oil drop experiments. It is at that point we get into physical results at Cern, which Research scientist Garrett Lisi pointed out are coincident with the e8 lie (pronounced "Lee") groups that make up the e8 lattice. At least that's what the math and experiments suggest at any rate.
So to expand on that relationship, essentially the entangled particles occupy 20 group geometry that is connected in the x dimension up from the third dimension. Meaning though they can be in "separate places" in the 3rd, they are actually just the same hyperdimensional geometry viewed from two hyperdimensional angles that render visually as 2 points in space.

Gotta give this kid credit for his effort at explaining the unexplainable. Good job!
For the identity black box , why not just pass through the input x to both the outputs ? Why do we need a cnot? Or is it that we have no identity operator?
Quantum computers don't have the ability to copy a qbit value, so we have to make do with CNOT.
The lecturer is cute. He seems to genuinely enjoy teaching and it makes me enjoy learning.

Why no example of inputs outputs bb at 36:55. I was with you till then Just saying this is the most difficult part without further explaining didn’t help Hoping someone reading the comment would explain
@Sandeep Iyer Happy to hear! It certainly took a long amount of staring for me.
@Andrew Helwer thanks . I got it eventually by more staring :)
It's conceptually difficult, hence explaining it is also difficult. The sort of thing you just have to stare at for a while.
Maaf ya allah hamba liat ini.
I am not a programmer at any rate but at 9mins, this video explains to me that quantum computing built a language(mathematical) to utilize superposition as a means to "computate" possible outcomes in exponents of 2 states possible at the same time that when combined with algorithms with another cubit will speed up computations by being able to perform more instead of on at a time like a classical computer. So this tells me, to treat it akin to getting a solution like a classical computer, a compute scientist will need to learn this way of modeling his "question" to the the right answer.
It is sort of like that but there is an important bottleneck: although we compute with an exponential number of amplitudes while the qbits are entangled or in superposition, in order to actually get information out of the system we have to measure it - and we can only get out as many bits of information as there are qbits. This huge bottleneck means we have to be very tricky about how we design our algorithms, and can only get a speedup in certain cases rather than in general.
Have you guys have you found God yet? scuse me 'iggy boson. When's the last time you spoke to Higgs Boson? I think Quantum Physics is a real waste of time and life, eh? it's just up the garden path physics. It's really smart people trying to find ways to hide more and more shit, you become Gods when you multiply the deceived amounts you. Thank God the real Gd coming back, it's known as the light, by which, no other light could have been made, including this AI, 2nd light, light that you're all currently having a lovefest with.
This is pretty cool. I'm amazed

Very nice presentation. Thank you
finally. I've watched and read so many things that just talk about the fact that superposition is a thing without actually going in to what it means for computation
stfu n show me the quantum gaming
And he’s confident enough to even sip out of a soda can sideways after explaining complex quantum dimensions.. “Are you all getting this?” Haha.. Great video
Pretty nifty indeed! What I'm suspecting is that qubits can be thought of as unit quaternions, which for me at least, makes it a lot more intuitive to think about them. But maybe for most people it wouldn't be! But if they're points on a 3-sphere, that sort of makes it make sense to me that you might have opposite "poles" of a sphere - the two different half and half superpositions - which project to the same ultimate value but are different - it's just phase again, like polarization.
So..... The probabilities, are the states.....
Basically, except amplitudes aren't quite probabilities - they can be complex or negative, and the sum of their squares has to equal 1 rather than just their sum (as is the case with regular probabilities).
I'm not an idiot I think but this stuff is over my head
You can do it! Anything specific you're having trouble with?
nice video! good collection of topics and good presentation... I tried to access quantumexperience.ng.bluemix.net/ but no luck.
@Andrew Helwer Thank you, this one seems to be working.
Looks like they moved it: quantum-computing.ibm.com/
Hey buddy, you look really handsome and have great hair! Do you know anything about computers?? No!? Well that's okay, we'll figure that stuff out later. #Microsoft
This is not for any scientist, why is the guy explaining matrix
Some people forget their linear algebra!
How did i fall asleep to this?
"So you can send entangled Qbits by laser?" "Yes" "Okay that's even cooler" love that guy 😂
I tried to read so many articles to get an intuition about how QC works, but it seems it just never rings the bell. I honestly think the best part in this vid for me is when he said "shut up and do the math". Really over the years I've been reminded again and again how "trying to understand it intuitively" is nothing if not backed up by concrete and hard working math/calculations.

Pretty neat, quantum computing is just an application of vector and tensor algebra or potentially just an application of probability theory?
It's kind of an extension of probability theory, in that instead of all the probabilities summing to 1, the absolute value squared of probabilities (amplitudes) sum to 1. 2-norm vs. 1-norm.
Why am i here don't even know quantum computing

The doubt at 1:09:45, the language of probability isn't accurate. Well with the small domain of my understanding, I can vouch for the fact that Accuracy can't be an artifact of probability.
I dont know how to even use excel and can barely use MS word, I have no idea how I got here but I cant leave
40:00 The confusion here is that there are two qbits, one named 'input' and one named 'output', but these two are both passed into the quantum black box to be operated on. The 'input' qbit is left unscathed after the black box, but it is the 'output' qbit which is rewritten with the value of [the possibly nonreversible function f : applied to whatever the value of our 'input' bit is]
UMMMM THIS WAS ON MY BIRTHDAY WTF I'm intrigued and curious and tripped out
Great talk. But at first I had trouble understanding why his "reversible set to zero" function is built the way it is. So to anyone who is asking himself the same question, here is my explanation: The non-reversible way of writing "set to zero" is the matrix [[1,1], [0, 0]] which is of course is rank-deficient so it is not invertible. So you need to avoid a row of zeros in the matrix while keeping all rows linearly independent from one another. The way to do that is to write the matrix in the following way [[0,0,1,1], [0,1,0,0], [0,0,1,0], [0,0,0,1]]. The last two rows perform what he labelled Input->Input' in his diagram. The first two rows perform the actual "set to zero" operation (labelled Input->Output' in his diagram), assuming that the first two values of the input vector are [1, 0, ...] which of course corresponds to the |0> input that is confusingly labelled "Output" in his diagram. I really wish he had written the operation as a matrix. Then it would have been clear to me immediately. That is also the reason why the "actual input" is the second parameter but the "actual output" is the first parameter: To get the [[1,1], [0,0]] submatrix away from the main diagonal.
