Quantum algorithms can be analyzed in a query model to compute Boolean functions where input is given in a black box, but the aim is to compute function value for arbitrary input using as few queries as possible. In this paper we…
We present a quantum algorithm for simulating quantum chemistry with gate complexity $\tilde{O}(N^{1/3} \eta^{8/3})$ where $\eta$ is the number of electrons and $N$ is the number of plane wave orbitals. In comparison, the most efficient…
$ $In its usual form, Grover's quantum search algorithm uses $O(\sqrt{N})$ queries and $O(\sqrt{N} \log N)$ other elementary gates to find a solution in an $N$-bit database. Grover in 2002 showed how to reduce the number of other gates to…
At Crypto 2011, some of us had proposed a family of cryptographic protocols for key establishment capable of protecting quantum and classical legitimate parties unconditionally against a quantum eavesdropper in the query complexity model.…
It has long been known that any Boolean function that depends on n input variables has both degree and exact quantum query complexity of Omega(log n), and that this bound is achieved for some functions. In this paper we study the case of…
We systematically investigate quantum algorithms and lower bounds for mean estimation given query access to non-identically distributed samples. On the one hand, we give quantum mean estimators with quadratic quantum speed-up given samples…
Bayesian network structure learning is an NP-hard problem that has been faced by a number of traditional approaches in recent decades. Currently, quantum technologies offer a wide range of advantages that can be exploited to solve…
The standard quantum search algorithm lacks a feature, enjoyed by many classical algorithms, of having a fixed-point, i.e. a monotonic convergence towards the solution. Here we present two variations of the quantum search algorithm, which…
We put forward a Quantum Amplitude Estimation algorithm delivering superior performance (lower quantum computational complexity and faster classical computation parts) compared to the approaches available to-date. The algorithm does not…
Recent research has demonstrated that quantum computers can solve certain types of problems substantially faster than the known classical algorithms. These problems include factoring integers and certain physics simulations. Practical…
PARITY is the problem of determining the parity of a string $f$ of $n$ bits given access to an oracle that responds to a query $x\in\{0,1,...,n-1\}$ with the $x^{\rm th}$ bit of the string, $f(x)$. Classically, $n$ queries are required to…
Quantum advantage is the core of quantum computing. Grover's search algorithm is the only quantum algorithm with proven advantage to any possible classical search algorithm. However, realizing this quantum advantage in practice is quite…
In this paper, we consider the secret-string-learning problem in the teacher-student setting: the teacher has a secret string $s\in {{\{0,1\}}^{n}}$, and the student wants to learn the secret $s$ by question-answer interactions with the…
We show that Durr-Hoyer's quantum algorithm of searching for extreme point of integer function can not be sped up for functions chosen randomly. Any other algorithm acting in substantially shorter time $o(\sqrt{2^n})$ gives incorrect answer…
We develop the first quantum algorithm for the constrained portfolio optimization problem. The algorithm has running time $\widetilde{O} \left( n\sqrt{r} \frac{\zeta \kappa}{\delta^2} \log \left(1/\epsilon\right) \right)$, where $r$ is the…
We present a multi-step quantum algorithm for solving the $3$-bit exact cover problem, which is one of the NP-complete problems. Unlike the brute force methods have been tried before, in this algorithm, we showed that by applying the…
We study quantum algorithms for the hidden shift problem of complex scalar- and vector-valued functions on finite abelian groups. Given oracle access to a shifted function and the Fourier transform of the unshifted function, the goal is to…
In this survey, we describe two recent developments in quantum algorithms. The first new development is a quantum algorithm for evaluating a Boolean formula consisting of AND and OR gates of size N in time O(\sqrt{N}). This provides quantum…
Several prominent quantum computing algorithms--including Grover's search algorithm and Shor's algorithm for finding the prime factorization of an integer--employ subcircuits termed 'oracles' that embed a specific instance of a mathematical…
We define and study the complexity of robust polynomials for Boolean functions and the related fault-tolerant quantum decision trees, where input bits are perturbed by noise. We compare several different possible definitions. Our main…
