| Title | Solvable Cellular Automata : Methods and Applications |
| Author(s) | Fuk??, Henryk |
| Publication | Cham, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Switzerland, 2023. |
| Description | XIX, 296 p. 41 illus., 28 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The main focus of the book is solvability of cellular automata, that is, expressing the state of a given cell after a given number of steps by an explicit formula. The author considers solutions of two types of initial value problems for cellular automata, the deterministic one and the probabilistic one. In the first chapter the basic concepts of cellular automata theory are introduced. Deterministic initial value problem is introduced next and solutions for selected simple rules are also presented. In the following chapters various techniques for solving the deterministic problem are introduced, using elementary CA rules of increasing complexity as examples. The second part of the book introduces the concept of probability measure in the context of cellular automata and the probabilistic initial value problem for both deterministic and probabilistic rules. The book is amply illustrated with examples and applications such as the density classification problem, phase transitions in traffic models or the diffusion of innovations model. In the appendix, solution formulae (both deterministic and probabilistic) for over 60 elementary cellular automata rules are listed. Ruelle-Frobenius-Perron equations for all 88 minimal elementary cellular automata are also provided. |

| Publication | Singapore, 1. Imprint: Springer
2. Springer Nature Singapore, 2023. |
| Description | XVI, 297 p. 81 illus., 44 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book presents various theories and algorithms to create a quantum computer. The concept of the classical and quantum computers, and the concept of circuits and gates are reviewed. The example of the Deutsch and the Deutsch-Josca algorithm is discussed to illustrate some key features of quantum computing. The Grover algorithm, considered to be of major milestone of the subject, is discussed in detail to exemplify the techniques used in computer algorithms. The role of quantum superposition (also called quantum parallelism) and of quantum entanglement is discussed in order to understand the key advantages of a quantum over a classical computer |

| Title | Realizing an Andreev Spin Qubit : Exploring Sub-gap Structure in Josephson Nanowires Using Circuit QED |
| Author(s) | Hays, Max |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2021. |
| Description | XXIII, 184 p. 90 illus., 89 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The thesis gives the first experimental demonstration of a new quantum bit (???qubit???) that fuses two promising physical implementations for the storage and manipulation of quantum information ??? the electromagnetic modes of superconducting circuits, and the spins of electrons trapped in semiconductor quantum dots ??? and has the potential to inherit beneficial aspects of both. This new qubit consists of the spin of an individual superconducting quasiparticle trapped in a Josephson junction made from a semiconductor nanowire. Due to spin-orbit coupling in the nanowire, the supercurrent flowing through the nanowire depends on the quasiparticle spin state. This thesis shows how to harness this spin-dependent supercurrent to achieve both spin detection and coherent spin manipulation. This thesis also represents a significant advancement to our understanding and control of Andreev levels and thus of superconductivity. Andreev levels, microscopic fermionic modes that exist in all Josephson junctions, are the microscopic origin of the famous Josephson effect, and are also the parent states of Majorana modes in the nanowire junctions investigated in this thesis. The results in this thesis are therefore crucial for the development of Majorana-based topological information processing |

| Title | The Physics of Computing |
| Author(s) | Gammaitoni, Luca |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2021. |
| Description | XI, 138 p. 88 illus., 55 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book presents a self-contained introduction to the physics of computing, by addressing the fundamental underlying principles that involve the act of computing, regardless of the actual machine that is used to compute. Questions like ???what is the minimum energy required to perform a computation????, ???what is the ultimate computational speed that a computer can achieve???? or ???how long can a memory last???, are addressed here, starting from basic physics principles. The book is intended for physicists, engineers, and computer scientists, and it is designed for self-study by researchers who want to enter the field or as the main text for a one semester course at advanced undergraduate or graduate level. The theoretical concepts presented in this book are systematically developed from the very beginning, which only requires basic knowledge in physics and mathematics |

| Title | Introduction to Quantum Computing |
| Author(s) | LaPierre, Ray |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2021. |
| Description | XVI, 366 p. 278 illus., 38 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book provides a self-contained undergraduate course on quantum computing based on classroom-tested lecture notes. It reviews the fundamentals of quantum mechanics from the double-slit experiment to entanglement, before progressing to the basics of qubits, quantum gates, quantum circuits, quantum key distribution, and some of the famous quantum algorithms. As well as covering quantum gates in depth, it also describes promising platforms for their physical implementation, along with error correction, and topological quantum computing. With quantum computing expanding rapidly in the private sector, understanding quantum computing has never been so important for graduates entering the workplace or PhD programs. Assuming minimal background knowledge, this book is highly accessible, with rigorous step-by-step explanations of the principles behind quantum computation, further reading, and end-of-chapter exercises, ensuring that undergraduate students in physics and engineering emerge well prepared for the future |
