qubit
thumb|upright=0.6|The general definition of a qubit as the quantum state of a two-Energy level|level quantum system In quantum computing, a qubit () or quantum bit is a basic unit of quantum information; a binary qudit the quantum version of the classic binary bit physically realized with a two-state device. A qubit is a two-state (or two-level) quantum-mechanical system, one of the simplest quantum systems displaying the peculiarity of quantum mechanics. Examples include the spin of the electron in which the two levels can be taken as spin up and spin down; or the polarization of a single pho

qutrit
A qutrit (or quantum trit) is a unit of quantum information that is realized by a 3-level quantum system (qudit with radix 3), that may be in a superposition of three mutually orthogonal quantum states.

BQP
alt=Diagram of randomised complexity classes|thumb|upright=1.25|BQP in relation to other probabilistic complexity classes (ZPP (complexity)|ZPP, RP, co-RP, BPP, PP), which generalise P within [[PSPACE. It is unknown if any of these containments are strict.]] In computational complexity theory, bounded-error quantum polynomial time (BQP) is the class of decision problems solvable by a quantum computer in polynomial time, with an error probability of at most 1/3 for all instances. It is the quantum analogue to the complexity class BPP.
