This cannot be the answer, however, when the interaction is looked at from the perspective of man’s basic “rude and more natural condition”. Nor can the answer be fo...

O Problema do Subgrupo Oculto em uma Classe de Produto Semidireto de Grupos

We present an efficient quantum algorithm for the hidden subgroup problem (HSP) on the semidirect product of cyclic groups Zpr oφ Zps , where p is any odd prime number and r and s are any positives integers such that r ≥ 2s. This quantum algorithm is exponentially more efficient than any classical algorithm for the same purpose. Resumo. Neste trabalho, apresentamos um algoritmo quântico eficien...
