Abstract

1.5QTM is a sort of QTM (Quantum Turing Machine) where the head cannot move left (it can stay where it is and move right). For computations is used other - work tape. In this paper will be studied possibilities to economize work tape space more than the same deterministic Turing Machine can do (for some of the languages). As an example language (0i1i|i≥0) is chosen, and is proved that this language could be recognized by deterministic Turing machine using log(i) cells on work tape, and 1.5QTM can recognize it using constant cells quantity.

Research supported by contract IST-1999-11234 (QAIP) from the European Commision, and grant no. 01.0354 from the Latvian Council of Science. This paper was written with financial support from Dati ltd.
