摘要
Grover's algorithm is a quantum algorithm for searching in unstructured databases which provides a quadratic speedup over their classical counterparts. We propose to use Clifford algebra in order to present a new way to describe the operators of Grover's algorithm and to simplify the calculation of its computational complexity.
