• Abstract summary: We present a novel approach to quantum algorithms, by taking advantage of modular values. We focus on the problem of ascertaining whether a given function acting on a set of binary values is constant. The proposed method, relying on the use of modular values, provides a high number of degrees of freedom for optimizing the new algorithm.

• Abstract: We present a novel approach to quantum algorithms, by taking advantage of modular values, i.e., complex and unbounded quantities resulting from specific post-selected measurement scenarios. Our focus is on the problem of ascertaining whether a given function acting on a set of binary values is constant (uniformly yielding outputs of either all 0 or all 1), or balanced (a situation wherein half of the outputs are 0 and the other half are 1). Such problem can be solved by relying on the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm. The proposed method, relying on the use of modular values, provides a high number of degrees of freedom for optimizing the new algorithm inspired from the Deutsch-Jozsa one. In particular, we explore meticulously the choices of the pre- and post-selected states. We eventually test the novel theoretical algorithm on a quantum computing platform. While the outcomes are currently not on par with the conventional approach, they nevertheless shed light on potential for future improvements, especially with less-optimized algorithms. We are thus confidend that the proposed proof of concept could prove its validity in bridging quantum algorithms and modular values research fields.

  We show how no (randomised) algorithm can determine the correct support sets (with probability $> 1/2$) of minimisers of LASSO when reading approximate input. For ill-posed inputs, the algorithm runs forever, hence, it will never produce a wrong answer. For any algorithm defined on an open set containing a point with infinite condition number, there is an input for which the algorithm will either run forever or produce a wrong answer.
