Abstract

In this work, we present a quantum query algorithm for searching a word of length $m$ in an unsorted dictionary of size $n$. The algorithm uses $O(\sqrt{n})$ queries (Grover operators), like previously known algorithms. What is new is that the algorithm is based on the quantum fingerprinting-hashing technique, which (a) provides a first level of amplitude amplification before applying the sequence of Grover amplitude amplification operators and (b) makes the algorithm more efficient in terms of memory use -- it requires $O(\log n + \log m)$ qubits. Note that previously developed algorithms by other researchers without hashing require $O(\log n + m)$ qubits.
