偏微分方程是容错量子算法很有前景的应用领域，但它处于数值分析和量子计算这两个语言不同的领域之间。这些讲义为从任一领域进入的读者提供基于数值的介绍。块编码是组织原则，一旦离散微分算子嵌入酉矩阵，诸如量子奇异值变换、哈密顿量模拟、酉矩阵线性组合、振幅放大和测量等原语就能组合成椭圆型、双曲型和抛物型偏微分方程的算法。各章从标准有限差分或有限元离散化开始，遵循从连续偏微分方程到量子编码、变换以及提取感兴趣量的完整流程。特别关注影响端到端性能的因素，包括离散化误差、态制备、归一化、后选择和测量成本。最后一章通过卡尔曼和库普曼 - 冯·诺依曼线性化介绍非线性问题。目的不是全面综述或声称具有普遍量子优势，而是为两个领域的研究人员提供数学上透明的切入点和共同词汇。
英文摘要
Partial differential equations are a promising application area for fault-tolerant quantum algorithms, but the subject lies between two communities with different languages: numerical analysis and quantum computation. These lecture notes provide a numerically grounded introduction for readers entering from either field. Block encoding is the organizing principle: once a discretized differential operator is embedded in a unitary, primitives such as quantum singular value transformation, Hamiltonian simulation, linear combinations of unitaries, amplitude amplification, and measurement can be assembled into algorithms for elliptic, hyperbolic, and parabolic PDEs. Each chapter begins with a standard finite difference or finite element discretization and follows the full pipeline from the continuous PDE to quantum encoding, transformation, and extraction of a quantity of interest. Particular attention is paid to the factors governing end-to-end performance, including discretization error, state preparation, normalization, postselection, and measurement cost. A final chapter introduces nonlinear problems through Carleman and Koopman-von Neumann linearizations. The aim is not a comprehensive survey or a claim of universal quantum advantage, but a mathematically transparent entry point and a shared vocabulary for researchers in both communities.
