Abstract

In this Comment on Feng’s paper [Phys. Rev. A 63, 052308 (2001)], we show that Grover’s algorithm may be performed exactly using the gate set given, provided that small changes are made to the gate sequence. An analytic expression for the probability of success of Grover’s algorithm for any unitary operator U instead of Hadamard gate is presented.
