The classical 3SUM conjecture states that the class of 3SUM-hard problems does not admit a truly subquadratic $O(n^{2-\delta})$-time algorithm, where $\delta >0$, in classical computing. The geometric 3SUM-hard problems have widely been…

Weighted variants of triangle detection are an important object of study because of their prominence in fine-grained complexity. We revisit the Node-Weighted Triangle problem, where the goal is to decide if a vertex-weighted graph contains…

Given two sets A and B and two oracles O(A) and O(B) that can identify the elements of these sets respectively, the goal is to find an element common to both sets using minimum number of oracle queries. Each application of either O(A) or…

Quantum algorithms for several problems in graph theory are considered. Classical algorithms for finding the lowest weight path between two points in a graph and for finding a minimal weight spanning tree involve searching over some space.…

We present a quantum algorithm solving the $k$-distinctness problem in $O(n^{1-2^{k-2}/(2^k-1)})$ queries with a bounded error. This improves the previous $O(n^{k/(k+1)})$-query algorithm by Ambainis. The construction uses a modified…

The phenomenon of quantum entanglement is fundamental to the implementation of quantum computation, and requires at least two qubits for its demonstration. However, both Deutsch algorithm and Grover's search algorithm for two bits do not…

We exploit Grover operator of database search algorithm for weight decision algorithm. In this research, weight decision problem is to find an exact weight w from given two weights as w1 and w2 where w1+w2=1 and 0<w1<w2<1. Firstly, if a…

Given an item and a list of values of size $N$. It is required to decide if such item exists in the list. Classical computer can search for the item in O(N). The best known quantum algorithm can do the job in $O(\sqrt{N})$. In this paper, a…

Numerous conceptually important quantum algorithms rely on a black-box device known as an oracle, which is typically difficult to construct without knowing the answer to the problem that the algorithm is intended to solve. A notable example…

In this paper, it is demonstrated that the DNA-based algorithm [Ho et al. 2005] for solving an instance of the clique problem to any a graph G = (V, E) with n vertices and p edges and its complementary graph G1 = (V, E1) with n vertices and…

We present subquadratic algorithms in the algebraic decision-tree model for several \textsc{3Sum}-hard geometric problems, all of which can be reduced to the following question: Given two sets $A$, $B$, each consisting of $n$ pairwise…

The quantum query complexity of subgraph-containment problems, which ask whether a given subgraph $H$ is present in an input graph $G$, has been the subject of considerable study. However, even for relatively simple subgraphs, such as paths…

We consider the problem of search of an unstructured list for a marked element, when one is given advice as to where this element might be located, in the form of a probability distribution. The goal is to minimise the expected number of…

The maximal clique problem, to find the maximally sized clique in a given graph, is classically an NP-complete computational problem, which has potential applications ranging from electrical engineering, computational chemistry,…

We present a continuous time quantum search algorithm analogous to Grover's. In particular, the optimal search time for this algorithm is proportional to $\sqrt{N}$, where $N$ is the database size. This search algorithm can be implemented…

We introduce the concepts of Grover operators and Grover kernels to systematically analyse Grover's searching algorithms. Then, we investigate a one-parameter family of quantum searching algorithms of Grover's type and we show that the…

Searching large databases is an important problem with broad applications. The Grover search algorithm provides a powerful method for quantum computers to perform searches with a quadratic speedup in the number of required database queries…

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…

In the paper, we consider the problem of searching for the Largest empty rectangle in a 2D map, and the one-dimensional version of the problem is the problem of searching for the largest empty segment. We present a quantum algorithm for the…

One of the significant breakthroughs in quantum computation is Grover's algorithm for unsorted database search. Recently, the applications of Grover's algorithm to solve global optimization problems have been demonstrated, where unknown…
