Scaling hypothesis of a spatial search on fractal lattices using a quantum walk

Measurement Based Quantum Computation on Fractal Lattices

In this article we extend on work which establishes an analogy between one-way quantum computation and thermodynamics to see how the former can be performed on fractal lattices. We find fractals lattices of arbitrary dimension greater than one which do all act as good resources for one-way quantum computation, and sets of fractal lattices with dimension greater than one all of which do not. The...

A Quantum Random Walk Search Algorithm

Quantum random walks on graphs have been shown to display many interesting properties, including exponentially fast hitting times when compared with their classical counterparts. However, it is still unclear how to use these novel properties to gain an algorithmic speed-up over classical algorithms. In this paper, we present a quantum search algorithm based on the quantum random walk architectu...

Search via Quantum Walk

Quantum random walk search on satisfiability problems

Using numerical simulation, we measured the performance of several potential quantum algorithms, based on quantum random walks, to solve Boolean satisfiability (SAT) problems. We develop the fundamentals of quantum computing and the theory of classical algorithms to indicate how these algorithms could be implemented. We also discuss the development of quantum random walks and the principles tha...

Quantum Walk Based Search Algorithms

In this survey paper we give an intuitive treatment of the discrete time quantization of classical Markov chains. Grover search and the quantum walk based search algorithms of Ambainis, Szegedy and Magniez et al. will be stated as quantum analogues of classical search procedures. We present a rather detailed description of a somewhat simplified version of the MNRS algorithm. Finally, in the que...
