Optimal estimation of quantum state overlap - Circuit implementation?

I've been reading this paper, but don't understand what their optimal method really is, and how it can be realized as a quantum circuit. The paper mentions the "Schur transform" which has a ...

Solving linear system $Ax=b$ with exponential speed-up via binary optimization?

The main disadvantage of HHL algorithm for solving $A|x\rangle = |b\rangle$ is that exponential speed-up is reached only in case we are interested in value $\langle x|M|x\rangle$, where $M$ is a ...

Sequential circuit using quantum gates

Without feedback/loop how can we build a sequential circuit? The basic feature of sequential circuit is that is depends not only on the current inputs but also on the previous inputs/outputs. I've ...

Quantum State Tomography Implementation in IBMQ

I am working to understand quantum state tomography, specifically using the algorithm presented in PRL 108, 070502. This paper is referenced in IBMQ implementations of QST, both in old deprecated ...

Could the Hamiltonian of a 2x2 Rubik's Cube be simulated with a NISQ device?

Consider the four cells on each of the six faces of the 2x2x2 Rubik's cube (the pocket cube). We can construct and simulate a quarter-turn Hamiltonian as below. $^*$ Let $\langle F_1,U_1,R_1\rangle$ ...

Equivalence checking of quantum circuits up to error

Suppose you are given two circuit descriptions $A$ and $B$ where by a circuit description I mean a sequence of gates (in the order they are applied) and the qubits they are applied on. (For the sake ...

Bell State 11 not working for parity curve

I am currently writing a script to automate the creation of parity curves for a 2 qubit bell state and then calculate fidelity and proving entanglement from that (inspired by this paper). It was going ...

How exactly is the stated composite state of the two registers being produced using the $R_{zz}$ controlled rotations?

This is a sequel to How are two different registers being used as "control"? I found the following quantum circuit given in Fig 5 (page 6) of the same paper i.e. Quantum Circuit Design for ...

Can we beat Grover for derangement problems?

Recall that a derangement of $N$ objects is (isomorphic to) a permutation of $\{1,\cdots, N\}$ that has no fixed point. The probability that a random permutation $f$ is a derangement rapidly reaches $\...

Is circuit cutting equivalent in anyway to quantum teleportation?

I've been introduced recently to circuit cutting, and after seeing the 4 orthogonal measurements with their 8 corresponding initializations but no initial transfer of classical info, the first thing ...

What is the computational complexity of decomposing operators in terms of quantum gates?

I have recently worked on a problem involving a rather large Hamiltonian, which I wrote some Python code for its generation following the method in this paper. No when I used qiskits ...

Arbitrary rotations in the plane spanned by two known quantum states

Suppose I have two quantum states $|\psi_1\rangle,|\psi_2\rangle$ that I know how to prepare from some fixed initial state, say $|0\rangle^{\otimes N}$ on some $N$ qubits with known quantum circuits $...

Is there recent research on experimental implementations of Grover's algorithm with more than 5 qubits?

I could only find experimental work on Grover's algorithm upto 5 qubits here. Is there any more recent research for larger database sizes where Grover's algorithm is employed? Is there any known ...

Can Grover's algorithm be applied to differential equation solving?

As I understand Grover's algorithm, given the output of a black-box function, can be used to find the corresponding input (or set of inputs if the function is not one-to-one). It is therefore ...
