DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Paola Andrea CONCHA OBANDO (Wits University)\nSearch
 ing algorithms play a crucial role in quantum computing\, enabling the eff
 icient identification of specific elements within large datasets. Grover
 ’s algorithm\, a key example\, significantly speeds up searches for unst
 ructured data compared to classical methods. Recent advancements have show
 n the potential of using optical fields as a computational resource to imp
 lement Grover’s algorithm\, highlighting the advantages of quantum techn
 iques for solving unstructured search problems. We present a novel approac
 h to performing search algorithms through quantum imaging\, establishing a
  link between search algorithms and quantum imaging techniques through com
 plex light. By employing spatially entangled photon states\, we demonstrat
 e the equivalence between quantum ghost imaging process and Grover’s alg
 orithm. Our results indicate that entangled structured light offers comput
 ational advantages\, requiring only a single iteration in our optical adap
 tation - unlike the typical √N iterations due to the higher-dimensional 
 nature of photon wave-functions\n\nhttps://events.chpc.ac.za/event/139/con
