Abstract
As quantum computers progress towards a larger scale, it is imperative that the “top” of the computing-technology stack is improved. This project investigates the quantum resources required to compute primitive arithmetic algorithms, particularly multiplication. By using various quantum resource estimators, like Microsoft's Azure Quantum Resource Estimator, one can determine the resources required for numerous quantum algorithms [8]. In this paper, we will provide a comprehensive resource analysis of numerous quantum multiplication algorithms such as Karatsuba, schoolbook, and windowed arithmetic for different qubit platforms (trapped ion, superconducting, and Majorana) using the new Azure Quantum Resource Estimator.
