量子情報科学は、量子力学を活用した新しい情報処理や計算の考え方を科学する分野です。この授業の目標は、量子情報や量子計算に関する最先端の理論的研究を理解し議論できる力を育むことです。研究の紹介や議論を通じて、受講者が量子情報科学の研究動向を俯瞰しながら、自身の研究への応用や発展を考える視点を育むことを目指します。

Quantum information science is a field that studies a new paradigm of information processing and computation by exploiting the laws of quantum mechanics. The goal of this course is to foster the ability to understand and discuss cutting-edge theoretical research in quantum information and quantum computation. Through the introduction and discussion of the research, students will cultivate perspectives that enable them to gain an overview of research directions in quantum information science and to consider how such developments can be applied and extended in their own research.

授業では、理論分野の研究者を招いてチュートリアル形式で研究分野の概要や最近の研究進展を紹介し、質疑応答や議論を行います。

In this course, invited theoretical researchers will give tutorial-style seminars that provide an overview of their research fields and introduce recent developments, followed by Q&A and discussion.

原則として対面で実施します。

In principle, the course will be held in person.

Speakers: TBD

この授業は大学院生向けに開講します。量子情報や量子計算を研究している経験があれば良いですが、必須ではありません。量子エラー訂正、量子暗号、量子計算量理論、量子アルゴリズム、量子情報理論に関する進んだ内容を扱う可能性があるので、各分野の基礎事項を知らない場合は予習がその都度必要です。詳細については授業内で指示します。

This is a graduate-level course. Research experience in quantum information and quantum computation is helpful but not required. Since the course may cover advanced topics in quantum error correction, quantum cryptography, quantum complexity theory, quantum algorithms, and quantum information theory, students who are not familiar with a given topic are expected to review the relevant basic material as needed before class. Further details will be provided during the course.
