We consider an approach to deciding isomorphism of rigid n-vertex graphs (and related isomorphism problems) by solving a nonabelian hidden shift problem on a quantum computer using the standard method. Such an approach is arguably more…
The standard quantum search algorithm lacks a feature, enjoyed by many classical algorithms, of having a fixed-point, i.e. a monotonic convergence towards the solution. Here we present two variations of the quantum search algorithm, which…

Quantum computers provide a super-exponential speedup for performing a Fourier transform over the symmetric group, an ability for which practical use cases have remained elusive so far. In this work, we leverage this ability to unlock…
