Grover's Algorithm

This chapter deals with some of the most prominent successes of quantum computing. The most well-known quantum computing algorithm, Shor’s algorithm for factoring a number in its prime factors, is discussed in details. The key to Shor’s algorithm is the quantum Fourier transform that is explained with the help of simple examples. The role of quantum entanglement is also discussed. The next important quantum computing algorithm is Grover’s algorithm that helps in searching an item in an unsorted database. This algorithm is motivated by first discussing a quantum shell game in which a pea hidden under one of the four shells is found in one measurement with certainty each time. This amazing result is then generalized to an arbitrary number of objects and Grover’s algorithm.

Subordinate Role

It now appears that quantum computers are poised to enter the world of computing and establish its dominance, especially, in the cloud. Turing machines (classical computers) tied to the laws of classical physics will not vanish from our lives but begin to play a subordinate role to quantum computers tied to the enigmatic laws of quantum physics that deal with such non-intuitive phenomena as superposition, entanglement, collapse of the wave function, and teleportation, all occurring in Hilbert space. The aim of this 3-part paper is to introduce the readers to a core set of quantum algorithms based on the postulates of quantum mechanics, and reveal the amazing power of quantum computing.
