Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm to find whether the secret has a one at a specific location
In the Bernstein- Vazirani Algorithm, we check whether the secret number has a '1' at a specific index of the number. If it's 1, we apply a CNOT gate, and then the algorithm gives the accurate value ...

What Adding Modulo To Register Means
I was reading about the Jordan gradient algorithm(https://arxiv.org/pdf/quant-ph/0405146.pdf) and I am a bit confused about one of the phrases:
Next, use the blackbox to compute
f and add it modulo $...

Why are we getting secret number $50\%$ of time even if there is no negative phase in last qubit?
In Bernstein-Vazirani Algorithm, the role of the last qubit (here, $q_7$) is simply to dish out negative relative phases to each qubit representing a $1$ through the use of $\text{CNOT}$s.
But if we ...

Applicability of the Bernstein-Vazirani to different modulus
The Bernstein Vazirani can solve s for f(x) = s(dot product) x mod 2. My question is if its possible to modify this to work for mod 3,4 etc. Is this even possible?
Edit: Whats the probability of the ...

How are Deutsch-Jozsa and Bernstein-Vazirani algorithms a fair comparison to classical ones
In both of these example algorithms, the Classical one is restricted to a single bit of output, while the Quantum one is allowed to use information exposed from multiple bits. There is no question ...

In the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm, what is the use of the second Hadamard gate?
In the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm, what is the use of the second Hadamard gate? What happens if I remove it? Would the algorithm works fine? I read something about it closing the interference.

What are quantum algorithms with only one possible outcome with probability equal to one?
I would like to study circuits with only one possible outcome. Quantum phase estimation, Bernstein-Vazirani, and in part Deutsch-Jozsa (for constant functions) come to mind - do you know any other ...

Can there be different gate implementations of same oracle implementation?
I have been reading about Bernstein-Vazirani Algorithm, and it uses what is known as a phase oracle. Basically, it is CNOT gate with several controls attached to the ancilla qubit $|-\rangle$ (it is ...

How do I construct the oracle for a general Bernstein-Vazirani circuit?
Say I have a secret of length $n$, $s = |x_{n-1}x_{n-2}...x_0 \rangle$. If I want to construct an oracle for this problem would I just insert a CNOT gate on every qubit where the secret's value is 1? ...

Speed up in Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm and Gottesman-Knill theorem
The Bernstein-Vazirani problem:
Let $f$ be a function from bit strings of length $n$ to a single bit,
$$f: \{ 0, 1\}^n \to \{0, 1\} $$
thus all input bit strings $x \in \{0,1\}^n$. There exists a ...

Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm as a generalization of Bernstein-Vazirani
It is known that both algorithms use the same gates: $H^{\oplus n}U_fH^{\oplus n}$.
After the circuit, the qubits are in the state $\sum_y \left( \sum_x (-1)^{f(x)+xy} \right) |y\rangle $.

Is the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm dependent on the specific behavior of the oracle?
My understanding of the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm is as follows:
We have a black box oracle with secret string $s$. The black box does
$$f(x) =s\cdot{x}=(\sum_1^n s_i\cdot{x_i})$$
We run each ...
