We present a framework wherein the trajectory optimization problem (or a problem involving calculus of variations) is formulated as a search problem in a discrete space. A distinctive feature of our work is the treatment of discretization…
We introduce an iterative method to search for time-optimal Hamiltonians that drive a quantum system between two arbitrary, and in general mixed, quantum states. The method is based on the idea of progressively improving the efficiency of…
The problem of simulating through quantum walks Dirac fermions in arbitrary curved space-times and coordinates is revisited, taking (1 + 1)D space-times as an example. A new shift or translation operator on the grid is introduced, to take…
Quantum computing promises to improve the information processing power to levels unreachable by classical computation. Quantum walks are heading the development of quantum algorithms for searching information on graphs more efficiently than…
In this paper, we propose a numerical method to approximate the solution of the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation with periodic boundary condition in a high-dimensional setting. We discretize space by using the Fourier pseudo-spectral…
The adiabatic theorem has been recently used to design quantum algorithms of a new kind, where the quantum computer evolves slowly enough so that it remains near its instantaneous ground state which tends to the solution [Farhi et al.,…
We provide first evidence that under certain conditions, 1/2-spin fermions may naturally behave like a Grover search, looking for topological defects in a material. The theoretical framework is that of discrete-time quantum walks (QW), i.e.…
A discrete-time Quantum Walk (QW) is essentially an operator driving the evolution of a single particle on the lattice, through local unitaries. Some QWs admit a continuum limit, leading to well-known physics partial differential equations,…
In this work, we consider the spatial search for a general marked state on graphs by continuous time quantum walks. As a simplest case, we compute the amplitude expression of the search for the multi-vertex uniform superposition state on…
We report on a detailed analysis of generalization of the local adiabatic search algorithm. Instead of evolving directly from an initial ground state Hamiltonian to a solution Hamiltonian a different evolution path is introduced and is…
Representing massless Dirac fermions on a spatial lattice poses a potential challenge known as the Fermion Doubling problem. Addition of a quadratic term to the Dirac Hamiltonian circumvents this problem. We show that the modified…
It is currently known from the work of Shoup and Nechaev that a generic algorithm to solve the discrete logarithm problem in a group of prime order must have complexity at least $k\sqrt{N}$ where $N$ is the order of the group. In many…
We study scattering quantum walks on highly symmetric graphs and use the walks to solve search problems on these graphs. The particle making the walk resides on the edges of the graph, and at each time step scatters at the vertices. All of…
In this paper, we study the Crank-Nicolson method for temporal dimension and the piecewise quadratic polynomial collocation method for spatial dimensions of time-dependent nonlocal problems. The new theoretical results of such…
An algorithm for structured database searching is presented and used to solve the set partition problem. O(n) oracle calls are required in order to obtain a solution, but the probability that this solution is optimal decreases exponentially…
Quantum walks are standard tools for searching graphs for marked vertices, and they often yield quadratic speedups over a classical random walk's hitting time. In some exceptional cases, however, the system only evolves by sign flips,…
This paper is an investigation of the class of real classical Markov processes without a birth process that will generate the Dirac equation in 1+1 dimensions. The Markov process is assumed to evolve in an extra (ordinal) time dimension.…
There are hamiltonians that solve a search problem of finding one of $N$ items in $O(\sqrt{N})$ steps. They are hamiltonians to describe an oscillation between two states. In this paper we propose a generalized search hamiltonian, $H_{g}$.…
We propose a novel implementation of discrete time quantum walks for a neutral atom in an array of optical microtraps or an optical lattice. We analyze a one-dimensional walk in position space, with the coin, the additional qubit degree of…
The concept of lackadaisical quantum walk -- quantum walk with self loops -- was first introduced for discrete-time quantum walk on one-dimensional line. Later it was successfully applied to improve the running time of the spacial search on…
