Event: National Level Five-Day Faculty Development Program on Quantum Computing Date: 3rd December 2025 Participants: Faculties and research scholars Topic: Quantum Algorithms and error correction Organizers: Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT) Details of the talk: Quantum computing is an emerging technology. The disruptive algorithms proposed in the late 90s established their importance.The first part of this one day presentation covered two such fundamental algorithms: Shor's algorithm and Grover's algorithm. Following this, the present-day challenges of implementing these algorithms were discussed, exemplified by the three-qubit repetition code.
