Quantum Algorithms
by Michele Mosca
Publisher: arXiv 2008
Number of pages: 71
Description:
This text surveys the state of the art in quantum computer algorithms, including both black-box and non-black-box results. A representative sample of quantum algorithms is given. This includes a summary of the early quantum algorithms, a description of the Abelian Hidden Subgroup algorithms, quantum searching and amplitude amplification, quantum algorithms for simulating quantum mechanical systems, several non-trivial generalizations of the Abelian Hidden Subgroup Problem, the quantum walk paradigm for quantum algorithms, the paradigm of adiabatic algorithms, etc.

An Introduction to Many Worlds in Quantum Computationby Clare Hewitt-Horsman - arXiv
This paper introduces one interpretation of quantum mechanics, a modern 'many-worlds' theory, from the perspective of quantum computation. Reasons for seeking to interpret quantum mechanics are discussed, then the specific theory is introduced.
