Technical requirements

In this chapter, we will discuss linear transformations of matrices in the Hilbert space, so it is highly recommended that you should know the basics of linear algebra. Some basic knowledge of Python or another programming language is required due to the experiments leveraging Python libraries and the Qiskit Notebook on the IBM Quantum Experience.

Knowledge of the qubit and how its states are represented on a Bloch sphere, QSphere, or mathematically, is recommended as this chapter will perform complex linear transitions of those qubit states. Knowledge of basic classical single-bit and multi-bit gates is also recommended, but not required, as there is a refresher if needed.
