Hello everyone,
Apologies that some of you seem to have encountered issues when they tried to log in to Crowdcast or couldn't find the live session URL!
Lecture #1 Replay
Slides & Study Materials: https://github.com/quantumformalism/2020-math-lectures/tree/master/foundation-module/lecture-01
The first 30 minutes covered the foundation module structure and the requirement for those wanting a certificate of completion from us. The actual mathematics session covered the following:
1. Frequent Mathematical Jargons
2. Basic Set-Theoretic Concepts
3. Natural Numbers and Integers
4. Maps Between Sets
5. Cardinality of Sets (definition of finite and infinite sets)
6. Countable and Uncountable Sets
7. Measure Theory Hack (without mentioning sigma-algebras)
8. Study Material Comments
9. Session Q&As
Foundation Module Refinement
Taking into account the abstraction survey, we've decided to push the functional analysis part of the course to the advanced module. This essentially means that the foundation module will focus on finite-dimensional complex Hilbert spaces. It also means that the mathematical machinery in the foundation module will be aligned with the standard quantum computing textbooks. Though be aware that our approach we’ll probably be more advanced in terms of mathematical scope than most ordinary QC textbooks!
