9 Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm

This chapter covers

  • Obtaining information from classical functions
  • Function evaluations vs. function properties
  • Quantum gates that correspond to classical black box functions
  • Understanding the Deutsch algorithm and the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm

The Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm that we discuss in this chapter demonstrates some of the characteristics of typical quantum algorithms. The direct practical use cases may be limited, but the algorithm is a great tool for explaining the logic that quantum algorithms often follow.
