Title: Quantum Go: Designing a Proof-of-Concept on Quantum Computer

Abstract: The strategic Go game, known for the tedious mathematical complexities, has been used as a theme in many fiction, movies, and books. Here, we introduce the Go game and provide a new version of quantum Go in which the boxes are initially in a superposition of quantum states |0> and |1> and the players have two kinds of moves (classical and quantum) to mark each box. The mark on each box depends on the state to which the qubit collapses after the measurement. All other rules remain the same, except for here, we capture only one stone and not chains. Due to the enormous power and exponential speed-up of quantum computers as compared to classical computers, we may think of quantum computing as the future. So, here we provide a tangible introduction to superposition, collapse, and entanglement via our version of quantum Go. Finally, we compare the classical complexity with the quantum complexity involved in playing the Go game.
