Planck und das Wunder der Entdeckung

S. M. Markus

ZusammenfassungFünf Jahre vor Entdeckung der Relativitätstheorie begann bereits ein neues physikalisches Zeitalter, das Einsteins Weltbild scheinbar aus den Angeln hob. Mit der Aufstellung der Quantentheorie durch Max Planck im Dezember 1900 ging die Durchsichtigkeit der Welt für immer verloren. An ihre Stelle traten scheinbar irrationale Paradoxien. Der glasklare Bau von Einsteins Logik erhielt einen Sprung.

Accelerated quantum search using partial oracles and Grover's algorithm

Bolton, Fintan M.

Grover's algorithm, orginally conceived as a means of searching an unordered database, can also be used to extract solutions from the result sets generated by quantum computations. The Grover algorithm exploits the concept of an oracle function, which abstracts the process of matching a search item (returning 1 for a match and 0 otherwise), where searching for 1 target item in a search space of size $N$ scales as $\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{N})$ oracle queries. In this article, we explore the idea of associating a separate oracle with each bit of the matching condition, obtaining multiple partial oracle functions which can be tested independently. Exploring this idea leads to a multi-stage hybrid search algorithm, whose performance can fall within a wide range, anywhere between $\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{N})$ (same as Grover) or $\mathcal{O}(\log(N))$. The algorithm is validated against the simplest kind of search scenario, where the incoming index bits are scrambled using a permutation operation.

The Grover algorithm exploits the concept of an oracle function, which abstracts the process of matching a search item (returning 1 for a match and 0 otherwise), where searching for 1 target item in a search space of size NNN scales as O(N)\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{N})O(N​) oracle queries. In this article, we explore the idea of associating a separate oracle with each bit of the matching condition, obtaining multiple partial oracle functions which can be tested independently. Exploring this idea leads to a multi-stage hybrid search algorithm, whose performance can fall within a wide range, anywhere between O(N)\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{N})O(N​) (same as Grover) or O(log⁡(N))\mathcal{O}(\log(N))O(log(N)). The algorithm is validated against the simplest kind of search scenario, where the incoming index bits are scrambled using a permutation operation.
