Something that puts everything into quantum computing

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the interest in quantum computing and the resources available for understanding its theories and workings. Participants emphasize the importance of utilizing online search tools, particularly Google, to find a wealth of information on quantum computing, with one noting a search yielding over 14 million results. Key recommendations for further reading include "Quantum Computation and Quantum Information" by Nielsen and Chuang, which is praised for its comprehensive coverage of the subject, including foundational topics like group theory. Additionally, "Quantum Computing for Computer Scientists" by Yanofsky and Manucci is suggested as a more accessible introduction to the field.

i can not say that I'm super good at knowing my quantum physics, but i know enough, and even if i don't i can just search it up!
so, recently i have taken an interest into the quantum computer , and the theories of how it works, is there anywhere that talks about it?

There's this nifty facility on the internet called "Google Search". You should give some consideration to learning how to use it. When I Googled "how does quantum computing work" I got 14,000,000 hits plus a list of other search terms that might be useful. I assume at least a lot of the stuff on the first couple of pages of that search is relevant to your question.
 
This website will give you everything you will need. :wink:
 
A book for the theory:
check out Nielsen and Chuang, Quantum Computation and Quantum Information, CUP.

We had a end of course lecture on Quantum computation, the contents of which came from that book.

This is what I would suggest as well. Very comprehensive book covering all the main topics of the theory, including foundational knowledge in other requisite areas such as group theory.

Also, Quantum Computing for Computer Scientists by Yanofsky and Manucci is nice less physically rigorous introduction
 
TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation. This article's date received is 2022-11-15...
