Abstract

Quantum counting is one of the well-known problems in which the application of quantum parallelism speeds up computations. Different authors suggest different estimates for the success probability of a quantum counting algorithm. Moreover, some authors use the direct quantum Fourier transform, while others, the inverse quantum Fourier transform in the quantum counting algorithm. The present paper demonstrates the results of mathematical simulation of the application of the quantum counting algorithm to estimate the weights of some Boolean functions, depending on six variables, in a quantum simulator Quipper to verify known estimates of the success probability of the quantum counting algorithm.
