Abstract

A necessary and sufficient condition for quantum computing performed with, for example, the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm or the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm, has theoretically been investigated. Assume a 2N qubit-quantum computing which starts with the state | 0 , 0 ,.. , 0 , 1 ⏞ N〉 | 1 , 1 ,.. , 1 ⏞ N〉 as follows: Uf|0,0,..,0,1〉|1,1,..,1〉 = |0,0,..,0,1〉 | f(0 , 0 ,.. , 0 , 1) ¯ 〉. Surprisingly the relation f(x) = f(−x) is the necessary and sufficient condition of holding this fundamental relation if local unitary operations can be used.
