Abstract
We present two new aspects for the recently proposed algorithms for matrix manipulating based on the special encoding the matrix elements into the superposition state of a quantum system. First aspect is the controlled measurement which allows to avoid the problem of small access probability to the required ancilla state at the final step of algorithms needed to remove the garbage of the states. Application of controlled measurement to the earlier developed algorithm is demonstrated. The second aspect is the algorithm for calculating the Hermitian conjugate of an arbitrary matrix, which supplements the algorithms proposed earlier. The appropriate circuits are presented.
