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 ...

Ever wondered how social media platforms decide how to fill our feeds? They use algorithms, of course, but how do these algorithms work? A series of corporate leaks over the past few years provides a ...

The Meet in the Middle approach is an optimization technique for solving problems like the Subset Sum Problem, particularly when n is around 30–40. It reduces time complexity from O(2ⁿ) to O(2ⁿ/²), ...
