A worthwhile purchase for my needs as a retired engineer seeking illumination on quantum everything!
Wow what a wonderful book with such relevant content! Much material from my younger engineering education and is a nice well organized volume for review of the old plus much new material needed for my understanding of the quantum computing process. As a retired engineer with much interest in computer science today, I have purchased about dozen quantum related books prior to getting this one which is proving to help solve my immediate hurdles with the needed math in the quantum computing path.
An excellent refresher for engineering professionals
Leonard has covered the foundational math needed to get started with Quantum Computing )QC). This book is primarily for professionals who need a refresher on Linear Algebra required to understand the basics of physics of QCs. From the very first chapter in the first section, this book captivates one’s attention as it covers vectors, linear combinations, and superpositions. The second chapter delves into matrices. The book’s second section has three chapters on elementary linear algebra starting from sets, groups, and fields to linear transformation, operators, and Euclid-inspired transformations. The third section focuses on Complex numbers, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, orthonormality, and advanced concepts like Gram-Schmidt, Cauchy-Schwartz inequalities, singular and polar decomposition, and matrix exponentials.Most of the chapters have exercises and answers for practice. The appendices are also helpful in understanding advanced theories and concepts. This book packs a punch, although it is under 250 pages. I recommend this book to any and every professional needing to brush up on their foundational mathematics as they prepare to tread into quantum computing
Really Important Book
https://www.amazon.com/dp/1801073147/I have been researching quantum curriculum for several years and hoping someone would write a book like this, to focus on the most relevant aspects of linear algebra in a friendly, accessible way. The diagrams are helpful and even if you get the black and white print version, also download the kindle version (you may be able to for free) in order to see the color diagrams.One of the huge problems in quantum is the talent gap but one of the things holding more people back is being intimidated by math. Partly for some this is because math is often taught without context – and many quantum courses have a high bar in math.So whatâs a person to do? Read Leonardâs book.I especially liked how the first four chapters introduced topics and later chapters help you dig in.
Useful starter to quantum computing math!
Very useful book. Topics are presented simply and practically. Also looks great on my book shelf- I look like a quantum genius!
a must read for people without math background but interested in quantum computing
I am interested in quantum computing for years but frustrated by the math. Finally found a book that enables me to learn essential mathematics for understanding quantum computing. Very grateful for the author to write this book.
Wow, very clear writing and well organized.
This book is very well written and has great figures and examples. A must-read and a good reference book on quantum mathematics.
Overview of basic – mostly matrix
I have read about one-fourth and presentation is pretty clear. Note that I am a novice.
Top quality book for beginners
Bravo, Leonard! Creating such a well-structured and breathtaking math book takes time and patience. I bet you invested a lot.This book has roughly 200 pages but teaches you starting from elementary things, such as vectors, and ending up with more advanced concepts, such as tensors or matrix decompositions. You won’t find anything in this book about quantum physics or commercially available services; this is a 100% pure math book focusing on vectors/matrixes. You can enjoy it even if you know how to do addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of real numbers only, which I hope the reader already acquired before middle school. Reading and doing all the exercises took me one and a half days. It has a few misprints (mainly incorrectly used signs), but the rest is top-quality. The only regret I have after reading is that I wasn’t able to read it 20 years ago as a student.
Despite its cover and title, this is nothing more than a high school level math textbook.This disclaimer even appears inside on who this book is for – would be good to reflect this on the product subscription.
Treats the readers as silly hence gives too much details of the simple steps and suddenly when it reaches an important point the author skips the details does at all with an explanation in the most cryptic manner. Such useless aproacj. Huh!
