Accelerating Shor's Factorization Algorithm on GPUs

Shor's quantum algorithm is very important for cryptography, since it can factor large numbers much faster than classical algorithms. In this study, we implement a simulator for Shor's quantum algorithm on graphic processor units (GPU) and compare our results with Liquid -which is Microsoft quantum simulation platform- and two classical CPU-implementations. We evaluate 10 benchmarks for comparing our GPU implementation with Liquid and single-core implementation. The analysis shows that GPU vector operations is more suitable for Shor's quantum algorithm. Our GPU kernel function is compute-bound, due to all threads in a block reach to the same element of the state vector. Our implementation has $52.5\times$ speedup over single-core algorithm and $20.5\times$ speedup over Liquid.

Spontaneous Emergence of Persistent Spin Helix from Homogeneous Spin Polarization

We demonstrate that a homogeneous spin polarization in one-dimensional structures of finite length in the presence of Bychkov-Rashba spin-orbit coupling decays spontaneously toward a persistent spin helix. The analysis of formation of spin helical state is presented within a novel approach based on a mapping of spin drift-diffusion equations into a heat equation for a complex field. Such a strikingly different and simple method allows generating robust spin structures whose properties can be tuned by the strength of the spin orbit interaction and/or structure's length. We generalize our results for two-dimensional case predicting formation of persistent spin helix in two-dimensional channels from homogeneous spin polarization.
