We propose a quantum algorithm for solving combinatorial search problems that uses only a sequence of measurements. The algorithm is similar in spirit to quantum computation by adiabatic evolution, in that the goal is to remain in the…

For the unsorted database quantum search with the unknown fraction $\lambda$ of target items, there are mainly two kinds of methods, i.e., fixed-point or trail-and-error. (i) In terms of the fixed-point method, Yoder et al. [Phys. Rev.…
