Arrange by Kind of record · Kind of algorithm

This arrangement reaches 199 of 284 records. The rest carry no technique in the catalogue's vocabulary — most of them are operators, which name a thing rather than a way of doing something.

Folders

Browse down through the catalogue by technique: which kind of algorithm it is, then what kind of record the catalogue holds for it, then which family.

Inside

  • Variational

    54 records

    A parameterised circuit whose parameters a classical optimiser moves.

  • Phase estimation

    34 records

    Reading an eigenphase into a register, including the Fourier transform behind it.

  • Oracle query

    32 records

    Algorithms whose cost is counted in calls to a black-box function.

  • State preparation

    23 records

    Getting a named state into a register.

  • Stabilizer

    20 records

    Clifford circuits, graph and cluster states, and syndrome measurement — the classically simulable corner.

  • Quantum walk

    14 records

    Coin-and-shift evolution on a graph.

  • Amplitude amplification

    13 records

    Boosting the amplitude of marked states by reflection, Grover and its generalisations.

    11 records

    Mapping fermionic modes onto qubits — Jordan–Wigner and its relatives.

  • Block encoding

    10 records

    Embedding a non-unitary matrix in a larger unitary — LCU, QSVT, QSP.

  • QAOA

    8 records

    Alternating cost and mixer layers over a combinatorial objective.

  • Error correction

    7 records

    Codes, syndromes, decoders, and the magic states fault tolerance consumes.

  • Product formula

    7 records

    Time evolution approximated by alternating the exponentials of non-commuting terms.

  • Feature map

    4 records

    Encoding classical data into a state so that overlaps act as a kernel.

  • Routing

    4 records

    Moving states across a connectivity graph; what a compiler spends qubits on.

    2 records

    Slowly deforming an easy ground state into a hard one.

  • Measurement-based

    1 record

    Computation driven by measuring a prepared resource state.
