  • Abstract
    We demonstrate that the logic computation performed by the DNA-based algorithm for solving general cases of the satisfiability problem can be implemented by our proposed quantum algorithm on the quantum machine proposed by Deutsch. Moreover, we also prove that the logic computation by the bio-molecular operations proposed by Adleman can be implemented by quantum gates (for example, the Hadamard gate, NOT, CNOT, and CCNOT) on the quantum machine. Furthermore, those NP-complete problems solved on a bio-molecular computer are also solvable on a quantum computer. To test our theory, we carry out a three-qubit NMR experiment for solving the simplest satisfiability problem.
