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…

The Grover search algorithm performs an unstructured search of a marked item in a database quadratically faster than classical algorithms and is shown to be optimal. Here, we show that if the search space is divided into two blocks with the…
