Title: The Hidden Subgroup Problem
Topic: A quantum algorithm for Hidden Subgroup Problem
Date & Time: Friday, November 13, 2 PM
Venue: B206

Abstract
The Hidden Subgroup Problem (HSP) is a fundamental problem in quantum computing that identifies a hidden subgroup of a group by querying a function that hides the subgroup. Several important problems in quantum computing can be formulated as instances of the HSP, including Deutsch's problem, Simon's problem, the period-finding problem, the order-finding problem, and the discrete logarithm problem. The standard quantum algorithm for the Abelian HSP can solve these problems more efficiently than known classical algorithms.
