Abstract

We show that n-bit integers can be factorized by independently running a quantum circuit with {O}\(n3/2\) gates for sqrt{n}+4 times, and then using polynomial-time classical post-processing. The correctness of the algorithm relies on a number-theoretic heuristic assumption reminiscent of those used in subexponential classical factorization algorithms. It is currently not clear if the algorithm can lead to improved physical implementations in practice.
