Learn about quantum computing and cryptography in this Japanese lecture from the 16th Kyoto University Research Institute and Center Symposium. Associate Professor Tomoyuki Morimae from the Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics explains the fundamentals of quantum mechanics, quantum computing, and quantum cryptography. Explore how the microscopic world of atoms and light is understood through quantum mechanics, and discover how quantum information processing technologies offer unprecedented computational speed and enhanced cryptographic capabilities compared to classical systems. Divided into three main sections, delve into the basics of quantum theory, examine the principles of quantum computing that enable superior computational power, and understand the advanced features of quantum cryptography that surpass traditional encryption methods. Originally presented at Kumamoto City Plaza Hall on March 6, 2021, as part of Kyoto University's Research Alliance Platform series addressing global societal harmony in a post-pandemic world.
