Quantum Algorithms
by Michele Mosca
Publisher: arXiv 2008
Number of pages: 71
Description:
This text surveys the state of the art in quantum computer algorithms, including both black-box and non-black-box results. A representative sample of quantum algorithms is given. This includes a summary of the early quantum algorithms, a description of the Abelian Hidden Subgroup algorithms, quantum searching and amplitude amplification, quantum algorithms for simulating quantum mechanical systems, several non-trivial generalizations of the Abelian Hidden Subgroup Problem, the quantum walk paradigm for quantum algorithms, the paradigm of adiabatic algorithms, etc.

An introduction to one-way quantum computing in distributed architecturesby Earl T. Campbell, Joseph Fitzsimons - arXiv
This review provides a gentle introduction to one-way quantum computing in distributed architectures. One-way quantum computation shows significant promise as a model for distributed systems, particularly probabilistic entangling operations.
