| contents | Diophantine equations are multivariate equations, usually polynomial, in which only integer solutions are admitted. A brute force method for finding solutions would be to systematically substitute possible integer solutions and check for equality.
Grover's algorithm is a quantum search algorithm which can find marked indices in a list very efficiently. By treating the indices as the integer variables in the diophantine equation, Grover's algorithm can be used to find solutions in brute force way more efficiently than classical methods. We present an example for the simplest possible diophantine equation. |
