We present fast and highly parallelized versions of Shor's algorithm. With a sizable quantum computer it would then be possible to factor numbers with millions of digits. The main algorithm presented here uses FFT-based fast integer multiplication. The quick reader can just read the introduction and the ``Results'' section.

  1. Approximate Quantum Fourier Transform in Logarithmic Depth on a Line

    quant-ph 2025-04 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The approximate quantum Fourier transform can be implemented in logarithmic depth on a line with 4n qubits (or 2n for uniformly distributed inputs), improving on the previous 8n-qubit all-to-all construction.

  2. Magic states are rarely the best resource to optimize: An analytical tool for qubit resource estimation in concatenated codes

    quant-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A closed-form resource estimation tool for concatenated quantum error correction reveals that magic-state operations rarely dominate qubit costs, with general optimizations providing orders-of-magnitude larger reducti...

  3. Thermodynamic limitations on fault-tolerant quantum computing

    quant-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Landauer heating from quantum error correction creates a phase transition between stable and runaway error rates, and current superconducting qubit parameters for Shor's 2048-bit factoring sit in the stable phase.

  4. Quantum oracles for the finite element method

    quant-ph 2025-04 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Quantum oracles for finite element matrices can be built from fixed-point adders, multipliers, polynomial evaluation, and Newton-Raphson square roots with polylogarithmic cost in matrix size.

  5. Quantum Arithmetic Circuits in Public-Key Cryptography

    quant-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 2.5 of 10

    A structured survey of optimized quantum adders, multipliers, modular exponentiation and point-addition circuits for public-key cryptanalysis, plus fault-tolerant resource estimation techniques.
