Quantum Hidden Subgroup Algorithms: An Algorithmic Toolkit

Samuel J. Lomonaco, Louis H. Kauffman

One of the most promising and versatile approaches to creating new quantum algorithms is based on the quantum hidden subgroup (QHS) paradigm, originally suggested by Alexei Kitaev.…

- Deformed Spin Networks, Knot Polynomials and Anyonic Topological Quantum Computation

Louis H. Kauffman, Samuel J. Lomonaco

We review the q-deformed spin network approach to Topological Quantum Field Theory and apply these methods to produce unitary representations of the braid groups that are dense in…

Permutation and Its Partial Transpose

Yong Zhang, Louis H. Kauffman, Reinhard F. Werner

Permutation and its partial transpose play important roles in quantum information theory. The Werner state is recognized as a rational solution of the Yang--Baxter equation, and th…

Topological Quantum Computing and the Jones Polynomial

Samuel J. Lomonaco, Louis H. Kauffman

In this paper, we give a description of a recent quantum algorithm created by Aharonov, Jones, and Landau for approximating the values of the Jones polynomial at roots of unity of…

Is Grover's Algorithm a Quantum Hidden Subgroup Algorithm ?

Samuel J. Lomonaco, Louis H. Kauffman

The arguments given in this paper suggest that Grover's and Shor's algorithms are more closely related than one might at first expect. Specifically, we show that Grover's algorithm…
