Dear all, first a great welcome to FYS5419/9419 and thx so much for having chosen the course. We hope you won't be disappointed. 
All educational material is available via the GitHub repository at  https://github.com/CompPhysics/QuantumComputingMachineLearning
Furthermore, for those of you who cannot be there physically, you can attend the lectures via zoom through the following link
Permanent Zoom link for the whole semester:

Passcode: FYS4411

Seen today's somewhat adversarial weather conditions, feel free to attend via zoom. Keep in mind also that all lectures will be recorded. 

You can also find today's lecture material at https://github.com/CompPhysics/QuantumComputingMachineLearning/tree/gh-pages/doc/pub/week1
The pdf variant is at  https://github.com/CompPhysics/QuantumComputingMachineLearning/tree/gh-pages/doc/pub/week1/pdf

Today the aim is to give a brief reminder on
Linear Algebra, Hilbert Spaces, operators on Hilbert spaces, states, qubits and other definitions, in addition to get to know each other.

Cya all soon, either via zoom or in person.

Best wishes to you all,
Morten
