contents Quantum algorithms reformulate computational problems as quantum evolutions in a large Hilbert space. Most quantum algorithms assume that the time-evolution is perfectly unitary and that the full Hilbert space is available. However, in practice, the available entanglement may be limited, leading to a reduced fidelity of the quantum algorithms. To simulate the execution of quantum algorithms with limited entanglement, tensor-network methods provide a useful framework, since they allow us to restrict the entanglement in a quantum circuit. Thus, we here use tensor-networks to analyze the fidelity of the quantum Fourier transform, Grover's algorithm, and the quantum counting algorithm as the entanglement is reduced, and we map out the entanglement that is generated during the execution of each algorithm. In all three cases, we find that the algorithms can be executed with high fidelity even if the entanglement is somewhat reduced. Our results are promising for the execution of these algorithms on future quantum computers, and our simulation method based on tensor networks may also be applied to other quantum algorithms.
