This course will be a rigorous, mathematical introduction to quantum
probability, including elements of quantum information, quantum mechanics,
and quantum computation. We will not visit the non-rigorous topic of
quantum field theory. I plan to post occasional homework and organize
class projects. Grading will be informal, but I expect good-faith class
participation.
Quantum Computation and Quantum
Information, by Nielsen and Chuang. (The main textbook of the field.)
My notes on quantum probability, under
development. (They definitely need more development.)

Behold, the academic
code. I don't know why it would be needed for this class, but I am
supposed to have a link to it.
