Abstract: Quantum computing is a rapidly developing field that holds great promise for solving complex problems. However, current quantum computers have limitations, such as a limited number of qubits and susceptibility to errors. To overcome these limitations, Variational Quantum Algorithms (VQAs) have emerged as a promising approach. In this talk, we will explore some of the applications of VQAs. We will discuss the basics of VQAs and provide examples of their use in solving linear algebra problems.
