Abstract

We propose a quantum algorithm to solve the intersection problem of two sets by extending Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm. Given set and set . In the classic algorithm, we need to query times to find the solution of set . However, in our quantum algorithm, we need only one quantum query to find the set .

Implementation of a quantum algorithm to solve the Bernstein-Vazirani parity problem without entanglement on an ensemble quantum computer

Jiangfeng Du, Mingjun Shi, Xianyi Zhou +4 more

Bernstein and Varizani have given the first quantum algorithm to solve the parity problem in which a strong violation of the classical information theoretic bound comes about. In this paper we refine this algorithm with fewer resources and implement a two-qubit algorithm in a single query on an ensemble quantum computer.

Quantum Algorithms for Some Strings Problems Based on Quantum String Comparator

Kamil Ravilevich Khadiev, Artem Ilikaev, Jevgēnijs Vihrovs

We study algorithms for solving three problems on strings. These are sorting of n strings of length k, “the Most Frequent String Search Problem”, and “searching intersection of two sequences of strings”. We construct quantum algorithms that are faster than classical (randomized or deterministic) counterparts for each of these problems. The quantum algorithms are based on the quantum procedure for comparing two strings of length k in O(k) queries. The first problem is sorting n strings of length k. We show that classical complexity of the problem is Θ(nk) for constant size alphabet, but our quantum algorithm has O˜(nk) complexity. The second one is searching the most frequent string among n strings of length k. We show that the classical complexity of the problem is Θ(nk), but our quantum algorithm has O˜(nk) complexity. The third problem is searching for an intersection of two sequences of strings. All strings have the same length k. The size of the first set is n, and the size of the second set is m. We show that the classical complexity of the problem is Θ((n+m)k), but our quantum algorithm has O˜((n+m)k) complexity.

A Generalization of Bernstein-Vazirani Algorithm to Qudit Systems

R Narayanan Krishna, Vishesh Makwana, Ananda Padhmanabhan Suresh

A quantum algorithm to solve the parity problem is better than its most efficient classical counter- part with a separation that is polynomial in the number of queries. This was shown by E. Bernstein and U. Vazirani and was one of the earliest indications that the quantum information processing can outperform the classical one by a significant margin. The problem and its solution both is usually stated for a 2-level system since we generally work with bits/qubits. However, many works have been done generalizing known quantum computing techniques to higher level systems. Following this, we look at a generalization of the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm implemented on a general qudit system.

Quantum Query Algorithms

Walid E. Gomaa

This presentation gives a comprehensive overview of quantum query algorithms, beginning with an introduction to the query model of computation where input is accessed via an oracle function. It then details several foundational quantum algorithms that demonstrate a quantum advantage over classical approaches: Deutsch's problem is solved with a single query using phase kickback to determine if a function is constant or balanced; the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm extends this to n-bit inputs, efficiently distinguishing constant from balanced functions with one query versus an exponential need classically; the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm identifies a hidden string with one query, outperforming classical linear requirements; and Simon's algorithm, which finds a hidden period in a two-to-one function with a linear number of queries, showcases an exponential speedup over the best classical probabilistic algorithms.

Quantum algorithms for query problems

Steven Herbert

Abstract In 1985, David Deutsch proposed the original quantum algorithm, a simple yet remarkable demonstration of the enhanced computational power offered by quantum mechanics. Deutsch’s algorithm provides a reduction in the number of queries to an unknown function required to discern some property of that function, relative to the best possible classical counterpart. This is known as an advantage in query complexity, and whilst the attention of the quantum computing community has, by and large, moved on to quantum algorithms that provide an advantage in computational rather than query complexity, it is still instructive to study some of the most important quantum algorithms for query problems. Such algorithms are historically important and, moreover, reveal the source of the computational power of quantum mechanics in a clear and easy to understand manner. This chapter studies four algorithms for query problems: Deutsch’s algorithm, the Deutsch–Jozsa algorithm, the Bernstein–Vazirani algorithm, and Simon’s algorithm.

Quantum algorithms for testing Boolean functions

Dominik Floess, Erika Andersson, Mark S. Hillery

We discuss quantum algorithms, based on the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm, for finding which variables a Boolean function depends on. There are 2^n possible linear Boolean functions of n variables; given a linear Boolean function, the Bernstein-Vazirani quantum algorithm can deterministically identify which one of these Boolean functions we are given using just one single function query. The same quantum algorithm can also be used to learn which input variables other types of Boolean functions depend on, with a success probability that depends on the form of the Boolean function that is tested, but does not depend on the total number of input variables. We also outline a procedure to futher amplify the success probability, based on another quantum algorithm, the Grover search.
