Publisher's Synopsis
Quantum computing is a paradigm of computing using physical systems, which operate according to quantum mechanical principles. Since 2017, functioning quantum processing units with limited capabilities are available on the cloud. There are
two models of quantum computing in the literature: discrete variable and continuous variable models. The discrete variable model is an extension of the binary logic of digital computing with quantum bits 0⟩ and 1⟩ . In the continuous variable model,
the quantum state space is infinite-dimensional and the quantum state is expressed with an infinite number of basis elements.
