Two-way quantum and classical machines with small memory for online minimization problems
Kamil Ravilevich Khadiev, Aliya Khadieva · 2019
We consider online algorithms. Typically the model is investigated with respect to competitive ratio. In this paper, we explore algorithms with small memory. We investigate two-way automata as a model for online algorithms with restricted memory. We focus on quantum and classical online algorithms. We show that there are problems that can be better solved by two-way automata with quantum and classical states than classical two-way automata in the case of sublogarithmic memory (sublinear size).
