It's been a while that quantum computing is looked as the next step in computational science. I somewhat always tought we were decade aways from it's happening but it appears I was wrong: [ibm-quantum-computing-cloud][1]  (well, i am still not sure this is a large scale quantum computer or an efficient quantum computer replication; edit: changed the link; it is a simulator)

Quantum mechanics and quantitative finance were already linked by some powerfull tools (ex. http://quant.stackexchange.com/questions/522/random-matrix-theory-rmt-in-finance) or shady reasonments (http://quant.stackexchange.com/questions/17604/quantum-mechanics-and-economics-what) but I did not really considered quantum mechanics as the next step of QF. For a long time papers I could find on the topic were either quantum mechanics oriented (see [Path_integral_formulation][2] and links) or 'poor' in term of quantitative finance (see [Quantum_finance][3] and links). 

Now i can find more interesting papers (currently at work, will post the relevant paper later) and am somewhat convinced that quantum computing could be a huge step ahead in both optimization and simulation and so in  quantitative finance. 

I am now looking for some good sources (keep in mind the aim is 3), i don't necessarly need to go trough all quantum mechanics again) on 
1) quantitative mechanics 
2) quantum computing
3) quantum computing applied to  quantitative finance
