Introducción a la computación cuántica: fundamentos y aplicaciones para estudiantes de pregrado

Abstract

Currently, there is a large set of quantum computers that can be remotely accessed from a personal classical computer. For example, those developed by IBM, which utilize superconductors at very low temperatures and are operated using the Qiskit library in Python [8]. This platform was made available to the public in 2016, and they currently offer 26 quantum computers with various hardware features. Additionally, there is another public project called Xanadu, which consists of a set of chips containing interferometers that function as quantum gates [9]. To use these public devices, it becomes essential to have familiarity with linear algebra, quantum mechanics, and basic programming concepts to effectively operate these devices. As a result, the motivation behind this proposal is to create a document with an introductory curriculum covering the necessary concepts for using a quantum computer, considering associated literature on quantum computing.
