Title:
Quantum Algorithm for Oracle Subset Product

Authors: Trey Li

Abstract:

In 1993 Bernstein and Vazirani proposed a quantum algorithm for the Bernstein-Vazirani problem, which is given oracle access to the function f(a_1,\dots,a_n) = a_1x_1+\cdots + a_nx_n \pmod 2 with respect to a secret string x = x_1\dots x_n \in \{0,1\}^n, where a_1,\dots,a_n \in \{0,1\}, find x. We give a quantum algorithm for a new problem called the oracle subset product problem, which is given oracle access to the function f(a_1,\dots,a_n) = a_1^{x_1}\cdots a_n^{x_n} with respect to a secret string x = x_1\dots x_n\in\{0,1\}^n, where a_1,\dots,a_n\in \mathbb Z, find x. Similar to the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm, it is a quantum algorithm for a problem that is originally polynomial time solvable by classical algorithms; and that the advantage of the algorithm over classical algorithms is that it only makes one call to the function instead of n calls.
