A new quantum-inspired algorithm has cracked a problem so massive that conventional supercomputers struggle to even approach it. Researchers used the method to simulate extraordinarily complex quantum ...

Abstract: Quantum walk-based search algorithms have demonstrated an asymptotic quadratic speedup compared to classical search methods. Formulating a generic search problem as a (quantum) search over a ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

Researchers have successfully used a quantum algorithm to solve a complex century-old mathematical problem long considered impossible for even the most powerful conventional supercomputers. The ...

Pau Torres and Tyrone Mings started together in central defence. It had been a long time coming, given their respective injuries and the general reticence to combine two left-footed defenders until ...

A new proof illuminates the hidden patterns that emerge when addition becomes impossible. The simplest ideas in mathematics can also be the most perplexing. Take addition. It’s a straightforward ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

Abstract: In this paper, security mechanism called zero knowledge proofs has been defined using subset sum problem. We have used subset sum problem for robustness analysis of zero-knowledge proofs ...
