Solving linear systems of equations is a common problem that arises both on its own and as a subroutine in more complex problems: given a matrix A and a vector b, find a vector x such that Ax=b. We consider the case where one doesn't need…

The current paper presents a new quantum algorithm for finding multicollisions, often denoted by $\ell$-collisions, where an $\ell$-collision for a function is a set of $\ell$ distinct inputs that are mapped by the function to the same…
