Greg Kuperberg: Connections between quantum computing and quantum algebra

Abstract

Quantum computing and quantum algebra are two celebrated modern kindred areas of research. The pinata-smashing result in quantum computing (but not the first important result) was Shor's algorithm in 1994. The pinata-smashing result in quantum algebra (again, in hindsight not the first important result) was the Jones polynomial in 1984.
