Annotation -
The course introduces into quantum computers, including basics of quantum mechanics in the extent necessary to understand the computational aspect of quantum phenomena. The focus is on quantum algorithms with cryptographic consequences, especially on Shor's Factorization Algorithm. Description of the quantum key distributing protocol is also included.
