>From 1d0506d2cc0dcfc983a2aedcc011cf9f9cc9be1f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Akira Yokosawa <akiyks@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 15 Jun 2017 00:23:16 +0900 Subject: [PATCH 7/8] future/QC: Use \ket{} macro for |0> and |1> |0> and |1> can be typeset properly by using \ket{} macro of "braket" package. Note that \ket{} can only be used in math mode.
