Abstract

Quantum algorithms have gained a lot of consideration especially for the need of searching unsorted database in a faster way rather than using the classical search mechanisms. This paper introduces a new quantum sort algorithm by employing the quantum features to expedite the searching process in conventional environments. The proposed efficient sorting algorithm emphasizes entanglement qubits property to sort N positive integers.

Sorting N elements using quantum entanglement sets

Ammar Odeh, Khaled M. Elleithy, Marwah Mohammad Almasri +1 more

To search for an element in an unsorted database, it requires O(N) operations using classical computers, where it takes only O(√ N) operations in quantum systems. In this paper, we provide an in-depth look at the existing quantum searching algorithms and emphasize the quantum entanglement feature to propose a new technique for sorting N elements and thus improve the sorting process.

Quantum min / max algorithms based on qubits {00, 11}

Ammar Odeh, Eman Abdelfattah

Quantum algorithms have gained a lot of consideration especially for the need to find out the extreme values like minimum or maximum. This paper introduces novel quantum algorithms to figure out the minimum and the maximum numbers among a set of positive integer numbers by employing some of the quantum features such as superposition, entanglement, and probability. The proposed algorithms utilize qubits properties to accelerate the searching process.

Quantum database search can do without sorting

Apoorva D. Patel

Sorting is a fundamental computational process that facilitates subsequent searching of a database. It can be thought of as factorization of the search process. The location of a desired item in a sorted database can be found by classical queries that inspect one letter of the label at a time. For an unsorted database, no such classical quick search algorithm is available. If the database permits quantum queries, however, then mere digitization is sufficient for efficient search. Sorting becomes redundant with the quantum superposition of states. A quantum algorithm is written down that locates the desired item in an unsorted database a factor of two faster than the best classical algorithm can in a sorted database. This algorithm has close resemblance to the assembly process in DNA replication.

Complete Adiabatic Quantum Search in Unsorted Databases

Nanyang Xu, Xinhua Peng, Mingjun Shi +1 more

We propose a new adiabatic algorithm for the unsorted database search problem. This algorithm saves two thirds of qubits than Grover's algorithm in realizations. Meanwhile, we analyze the time complexity of the algorithm by both perturbative method and numerical simulation. The results show it provides a better speedup than the previous adiabatic search algorithm.

An efficient quantum search engine on unsorted database

Heping Hu, Yingyu Zhang, Zhengding Lu

We consider the problem of finding one or more desired items out of an unsorted database. Patel has shown that if the database permits quantum queries, then mere digitization is sufficient for efficient search for one desired item. The algorithm, called factorized quantum search algorithm, presented by him can locate the desired item in an unsorted database using $O(log_{4}N)$ queries to factorized oracles. But the algorithm requires that all the property values must be distinct from each other. In this paper, we discuss how to make a database satisfy the requirements, and present a quantum search engine based on the algorithm. Our goal is achieved by introducing auxiliary files for the property values that are not distinct, and converting every complex query request into a sequence of calls to factorized quantum search algorithm. The query complexity of our algorithm is $O(P*Q*M*log_{4}N)$, where P is the number of the potential simple query requests in the complex query request, Q is the maximum number of calls to the factorized quantum search algorithm of the simple queries, M is the number of the auxiliary files for the property on which our algorithm are searching for desired items. This implies that to manage an unsorted database on an actual quantum computer is possible and efficient.

Efficient simulation of quantum-based searching

Tamás Varga, László Bacsárdi

The efficient search in unsorted database is extremely important for our everydays' applications. This type of search is useful in communication networks as well, since routing can be considered as a search in the database of the routing table. From the viewpoint of quantum computing, the not quantum-based solutions are named as classical. The search could be very time-consuming and computationally task if we need to solve it using classical algorithms, particularly for large data sets. This process can be accelerated and be more efficient by the application of quantum search algorithms. To investigate the quantum search, we have developed a Java-based system to simulate different quantum algorithms which are based on elementary quantum gates. In our model, we took into account the computation errors of the elementary quantum gates. We analyzed how these errors affect the efficiency of quantum search.
