Quantum circuit implementation of the Hamiltonian versions of Grover's algorithm

Abstract

We analyze three different quantum search algorithms, the traditional Grover's algorithm, its continuous-time analogue by Hamiltonian evolution, and finally the quantum search by local adiabatic evolution. We show that they are closely related algorithms in the sense that they all perform a rotation, at a constant angular velocity, from a uniform superposition of all states to the solution state. This make it possible to implement the last two algorithms by Hamiltonian evolution on a conventional quantum circuit, while keeping the quadratic speedup of Grover's original algorithm.
