Description

This talk will give an introduction to quantum algorithms, which are the core of the "software" of quantum computers. We will go into algorithms relevant for cryptography (such as Shor's factoring algorithm), for optimization tasks (such as Grover search and the HHL algorithm), and for simulation of physical systems. We will also briefly look at known limitations of quantum computers.
