Grover’s algorithm is a quantum algorithm that significantly accelerates the process of searching an unsorted database. Unlike classical algorithms, which typically require O(N) operations to find a specific item in a database of N entries, Grover’s algorithm can perform the search in O(sqrt{N}) operations, providing a quadratic speedup. 1. Initialization: – Start with a quantum …
In the realm of cryptography, one algorithm stands out for its potential to revolutionize the field: Shor’s Algorithm. Developed by mathematician Peter Shor in 1994, this quantum algorithm offers a pathway to efficiently factor large composite numbers into their prime components. Let’s delve into the workings of Shor’s Algorithm and its implications for the future …
