Grover's algorithm is a quantum algorithm which searches an unordered database (inverts a function).
Provides polynomial speedup over classical brute-force search ($O(\sqrt{N}) vs. O(N))$

Define a black box function that returns True if it is passed the state we are searching for.

In [4]:
def black_box(qubits):
    return True if qubits == IntQubit(1, qubits.nqubits) else False

Build a uniform superposition state to start the search.

In [5]:
psi = superposition_basis(nqubits); psi
Out[5]:
$$\frac{1}{4} \sqrt{2} {\left|0\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{4} \sqrt{2} {\left|1\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{4} \sqrt{2} {\left|2\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{4} \sqrt{2} {\left|3\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{4} \sqrt{2} {\left|4\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{4} \sqrt{2} {\left|5\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{4} \sqrt{2} {\left|6\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{4} \sqrt{2} {\left|7\right\rangle }$$
In [6]:
v = OracleGate(nqubits, black_box)

Perform two iterations of Grover's algorithm. Each iteration, the amplitude of the target state increases.

In [7]:
iter1 = qapply(grover_iteration(psi, v)); iter1
Out[7]:
$$\frac{1}{8} \sqrt{2} {\left|0\right\rangle } + \frac{5}{8} \sqrt{2} {\left|1\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{8} \sqrt{2} {\left|2\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{8} \sqrt{2} {\left|3\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{8} \sqrt{2} {\left|4\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{8} \sqrt{2} {\left|5\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{8} \sqrt{2} {\left|6\right\rangle } + \frac{1}{8} \sqrt{2} {\left|7\right\rangle }$$
In [8]:
iter2 = qapply(grover_iteration(iter1, v)); iter2
Out[8]:
$$- \frac{1}{16} \sqrt{2} {\left|0\right\rangle } + \frac{11}{16} \sqrt{2} {\left|1\right\rangle } - \frac{1}{16} \sqrt{2} {\left|2\right\rangle } - \frac{1}{16} \sqrt{2} {\left|3\right\rangle } - \frac{1}{16} \sqrt{2} {\left|4\right\rangle } - \frac{1}{16} \sqrt{2} {\left|5\right\rangle } - \frac{1}{16} \sqrt{2} {\left|6\right\rangle } - \frac{1}{16} \sqrt{2} {\left|7\right\rangle }$$

A single shot measurement is performed to retrieve the target state.
