Grover’s Quantum Search Algorithm Based on Adaptive Phase Rotation

Abstract

When the Grover's algorithm is applied to search an unordered database, the success probability usually decreases with the increase of marked items. The reason for this phenomenon was analyzed, the Grover iteration was studied, and a new adaptive phase rotation was proposed. With application of the new phase rotation, when the fraction of marked items is a rational number in range (3-5~(1/2)) / 8to 1/4, the success probability is equal to 1 after two Grover iterations; and when the fraction of marked items is greater than1/4, the success probability is equal to 1 after the only one Grover iteration. The effectiveness of the new phase rotation is verified by a search example.

Adaptive Phase Matching in Grover’s Algorithm

Panchi Li, Kaoping Song

When the Grover’s algorithm is applied to search an unordered database, the successful probability usually decreases with the increase of marked items. In order to solve this problem, an adaptive phase matching is proposed. With application of the new phase matching, when the fraction of marked items is greater , the successful probability is equal to 1 with at most two Grover iterations. The validity of the new phase matching is verified by a search example.

Phase Matching in Quantum Searching Algorithm with Weighted Targets

Panchi Li, Shiyong Li

As searching targets in an unordered database with Grover's algorithm,difference in marked items is not taken into consideration.If fraction of marked items is greater than 1/4,success probability of search decreases rapidly with increase of marked items.When the fraction of marked items is greater than 1/2,the algorithm is disabled.Aiming at above problems,an improved Grover's algorithm with weighted targets is proposed in which every target is assigned a weight coefficient according to its significance.With these weight coefficients,targets are represented as quantum superpositions which make probability getting target equal to its weight coefficient.An adaptive phase matching method is proposed based on weighted targets.The directions of phase rotations are contrary,and amplitudes of the two phase rotations are determined by inner-product of target quantum superposition and initial state of the system.As the inner-product is greater than(((3-5)/8)~(1/2),) success probability is equal to 1 with two steps of Grover iteration at most.The improved quantum searching algorithm and the new phase matching are verified by an example.

A Fixed-Phase Quantum Search Algorithm with More Flexible Behavior

Xin Li, Panchi Li

When the Grover’s algorithm is applied to search an unordered database, the probability of success usually decreases with the increase of marked items. To address this phenomenon, a fixed-phase quantum search algorithm with more flexible behavior is proposed. In proposed algorithm, the phase shifts can be fixed at the different values to meet the needs of different practical problems. If research requires a relatively rapid speed, the value of the phase shifts should be appropriately increased, if search requires a higher success probability, the value of the phase shifts should be appropriately decreased. When the phase shifts are fixed at , the success probability of at least 99.38% can be obtained in iterations.

An improved measure in Grover quantum searching algorithm

Shiyong Li

When the current Grover algorithm is applied to search some objects in an unsorted quantum database,the probability of correct objects usually falls with the increase of the searched objects.The reason for this problem is analyzed in this paper,and an improved measure based on the new phase matching condition is proposed.In the new phase matching condition,the amplitudes of two phase rotations are the same and the directions of two phase rotations are contrary.When the objects are more than one third of the total items,with the new phase matching condition,all objects can be found by at least 25/27 of the probability and by the only one Grover iteration.The validity of the improved measure is proved by experiment.

Grover algorithm with zero theoretical failure rate

Gui‐Lu Long

In a standard Grover's algorithm for quantum searching, the probability of finding the marked item is not exactly 1. In this paper we present a modified version of Grover's algorithm that searches a marked state with full successful rate. The modification is done by replacing the phase inversion by phase rotation through angle $\ensuremath{\varphi}.$ The rotation angle is given analytically to be $\ensuremath{\varphi}=2\mathrm{arcsin}(\mathrm{sin}[\ensuremath{\pi}/(4J+6)]/\mathrm{sin}\ensuremath{\beta}),$ where $\mathrm{sin}\ensuremath{\beta}=1/\sqrt{N},$ N is the number of items in the database, and J is any integer equal to or greater than the integer part of $[(\ensuremath{\pi}/2)\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\beta}]/(2\ensuremath{\beta}).$ Upon measurement at the $(J+1)\mathrm{th}$ iteration, the marked state is obtained with certainty.
