This course builds upon quantum information course to describe the concepts underpinning quantum computation. By the end of this course you will understand the key algorithms and their applications, such as Shor's and Grover's algorithms and quantum simulation. You will also learn about quantum Fourier transform and phase estimation, quantum error correction and noise and quantum channels. 

Course will cover:

• Classical and quantum compuational complexity
• Grover's algorithm and its generalisations
• The quantum Fourier transform and periodicity
• Integer factorisation
• Phase estimation
• Hamiltonain simulation
• Noise and the framework of quantum channels
• Quantum error-correction
