The Deutsch–Jozsa algorithm distinguishes constant functions from balanced functions with a single evaluation. In the first part of the work, we present simulations of the nuclear magnetic resonance application of the Deutsch–Jozsa algorithm to a 3-spin system for all possible balanced functions. Three different kinds of initial states are considered: a thermal state, a pseudopure state, and a pair (difference) of pseudopure states. Then, simulations of several balanced functions and the two constant functions of a 5-spin system are described. Finally, corresponding experimental spectra obtained by using a 16-frequency pulse to create an input equivalent to either a constant function or a balanced function are presented, and the results are compared with those obtained from computer simulations.

The Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm is a generalization of the Deutsch algorithm which was the first algorithm written. We present schemes to implement the Deutsch algorithm and the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm via cavity QED.

We reveal a close relationship between quantum metrology and the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm on continuous-variable quantum systems. We develop a general procedure, characterized by two parameters, that unifies parameter estimation and the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm. Depending on which parameter we keep constant, the procedure implements either the parameter-estimation protocol or the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm. The parameter-estimation part of the procedure attains the Heisenberg limit and is therefore optimal. Due to the use of approximate normalizable continuous-variable eigenstates, the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm is probabilistic. The procedure estimates a value of an unknown parameter and solves the Deutsch-Jozsa problem without the use of any entanglement.
