The authors survey and analyze the main concepts and postulates of the quantum computing model, efficient quantum algorithms, and recent results, capabilities, and prospects in constructing a scalable quantum computer. A certain class of algebraic problems in the quantum computing model is considered for which there exists an efficient quantum solution algorithm. A detailed analysis of available quantum computer implementations was carried out, and it is shown that sufficient progress has not yet been made in constructing a scalable quantum computing device; nevertheless, most researchers expect that a full-fledged quantum computer will be created in the next 10–15 years.
