Abstract
A quantum Fourier transform (QFT) has been implemented on a three qubit nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) quantum computer to extract the periodicity of an input state. Implementation of a QFT provides a first step towards the realization of Shor's factoring and other quantum algorithms. The experimental implementation of the QFT on a periodic state is presented along with a quantitative measure of its efficiency measured through state tomography. Experimentally realizing the QFT is a clear demonstration of the ability of NMR to control quantum systems.

Polynomial-Time Algorithms for Prime Factorization and Discrete Logarithms on a Quantum Computer

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered factoring integers and finding discrete logarithms on a quantum computer and gave an efficient randomized algorithm for these two problems, which takes a number of steps polynomial in the input size of the integer to be factored.

Simulating physics with computers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the possibility of simulating physics in the classical approximation, a thing which is usually described by local differential equations, and the possibility that there is to be an exact simulation, that the computer will do exactly the same as nature.

TL;DR: In this article, theoretical description of NMR Spectroscopy and its application in NMR spectroscopy is presented. But, the authors focus on the theoretical aspects of NMS, and not on the experimental aspects.
