Multipartite entanglement and Grover's search algorithm
Abstract
We firstly investigate the multipartite entanglement features of the quantum states, including the iteration states achieved by repeated application of Grover iteration and the Oracle ones into which the above iteration states evolve by applying single Oracle operation, employed in Grover's search algorithm by means of the separable degree and the entanglement measure. Then we give the quantitative and qualitative descriptions of the entanglement dynamics in Grover's search algorithm. Our results show that for most instances (i) the separable degrees of these states and ranges of their maximum Schmidt numbers are invariable by following the dynamics of Grover's search algorithm; (ii) the dynamics of Grover's search algorithm is almost "filled" by the fully entangled states.
