Abstract
Quantum coherence plays a pivotal role in quantum algorithms. We study the coherence dynamics of the evolved states in Simon's quantum algorithm based on Tsallis relative entropy and norm. We prove that the coherences of the first register and the second register both rely on the dimension of the state spaces of the qubit systems, and increase with the increase of . We show that the oracle operator does not change the coherence. Moreover, we study the coherence dynamics in the Simon's quantum algorithm and prove that in overall the coherence is in production when and in depletion when .
