A pedagogical walkthrough on the implementation of the algortihm is given this blog post. The work presented here is a complete implementation of Shor's algorithm, which, in theory, can run to ...

In this experiment, we scaled up from an architecture initially implemented with two qubits and three resonators 16 to a nine-element quantum processor capable of realizing rapid entanglement and a ...

In the realm of quantum computing, few algorithms have sparked as much excitement—and concern—as Shor's Algorithm. Developed by Peter Shor in 1994, this groundbreaking quantum algorithm provides an ...

Arxiv – Pretending to factor large numbers on a quantum computer – Shor’s algorithm for factoring in polynomial time on a quantum computer gives an enormous advantage over all known classical ...

Quantum factor: the Paul trap used by Monz and colleagues. (Courtesy: C Lackner/Quantum Optics and Spectroscopy Group, University of Innsbruck) A quantum computer made of five trapped ions has been ...

A quantum computer algorithm that is used to find the prime factors in an encryption key. Created by applied mathematician Peter Shor in the mid-1990s, Shor's algorithm may be used to break the codes ...
