We consider a communication method, where the sender encodes n classical bits into 1 qubit and sends it to the receiver who performs a certain measurement depending on which of the initial bits must be recovered. This procedure is called…
A theoretical model of a quantum device which can factorize any number N in two steps i.e. by preparing an input state and performing a measurement is discussed. The analysis reveals that the duration of state preparation and measurement is…

Suppose we have a two-party communication protocol for $f$ which allows the parties to make queries to an oracle computing $g$; for example, they may query an Equality oracle. To translate this protocol into a randomized protocol, we must…
A crucial subroutine in quantum computing is to load the classical data of $N$ complex numbers into the amplitude of a superposed $n=\lceil \log_2N\rceil$-qubit state. It has been proven that any algorithm universally implementing this…

We propose a new finding $k$-minima algorithm and prove that its query complexity is $\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{kN})$, where $N$ is the number of data indices. Though the complexity is equivalent to that of an existing method, the proposed is…
In a fundamental paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 78, 325 (1997)] Grover showed how a quantum computer can find a single marked object in a database of size N by using only O(N^{1/2}) queries of the oracle that identifies the object. His result was…
