Learning objectives
This course aims to provide students with a solid understanding of quantum mechanical methods applied to the structure of matter, with particular emphasis on quantum dynamics. Additionally, fundamental concepts of quantum computing will be introduced, including key algorithms and their potential applications. Additionally, fundamental concepts of quantum computing will be introduced, including key algorithms and their potential applications. The goal is to equip students with the theoretical and practical tools necessary to tackle quantum problems in theoretical chemistry, with both traditional techniques and those of the emerging field of quantum information.
Expected learning outcomes
By the end of the course, students will have mastered the resolution of quantum problems in chemistry, both static and dynamic. +Additionally, they will gain insight into the potential of quantum computing, become familiar with quantum gates, and be able to develop basic algorithms for simple quantum applications.
