10 Bibliographical Notes We are not comprehensive in any sense of the word.
Feynman _[61] contains a reprint of
the lecture “Quantum Mechanical Computers" [59] which began the field of Quantum Computing;
an important continuation is [71] which
includes papers written by many authors who pioneered the field.
Williams _and Clearwater’s _book [140] is the
first monograph on the subject; Mathematica programs simulate a few quantum
algorithms including Shor’s _algorithm. Other
books of interest are Milburn _[102] and Berman, _Doolen, Mainieri, _Tsifrinovich
_[19], Calude
and Paun [39], Gruska [67]. Meglicki [96], Nielsen and Chuang [105], Williams and Clearwater [141]. Brooks _[
24], Calude and Casti [32], Calude, _Dinneen
_and Casti _[33], Antoniou, Calude, and Dinneen [3], Calude, Dinneen and Peper [35], Lo, _Spiller,
_Popescu _[91], Macchiavello, _Palma,
_Zeilinger _[93] contain recent papers in the subject.
The articles referenced in this chapter, and many more, have been announced
at the Los Alamos preprint server:
