Continued Fractions and Probability Estimations in Shor’s Algorithm: A Detailed and Self-Contained Treatise
Shor’s algorithm for prime factorization is a hybrid algorithm consisting of a quantum part and a classical part. The main focus of the classical part is a continued fraction analysis. The presentation of this is often short, pointing to text books on number theory. In this contribution, we present...
