Similarities to original paper?
[edit]I'm not super familiar with the Wikipedia policies on this, but it seems that a large part of the procedure and explanation is taken directly from the source paper. Is this okay/acceptable? I realize that there are not really any other sources for this information other than the original research paper... ChunyangD (talk) 06:22, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
Error
[edit]In the main formula: |x>=Sum_{i} \bet_{i} (lambda_{j})^(-1) |u_{j}> index i and j are confused! Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.76.6.79 (talk) 04:38, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
Requested move 5 November 2023
[edit]- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page.

The result of the move request was: moved (non-admin closure). Jenks24 (talk) 11:36, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
Quantum algorithm for linear systems of equations → HHL Algorithm – This article is currently has a generic title: per WP:CRITERIA, I think it would be more concise and precise to title it HHL Algorithm. My reasons are thus:
- The current title is long: HHL Algorithm is much shorter
- The current title is potentially ambiguous: a new quantum algorithm for solving linear systems of equations may be developed in the future
- The algorithm is already referred to as "HHL" in the Quantum information navbox at the bottom of the page

- Support. I'm not an expert in this subject, but I have only seen this algorithm referred to as the HHL algorithm in the literature. So Wikipedia:COMMONNAME may be another justification. The move seems reasonable to me. Mgnbar (talk) 11:11, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support due to evident genericity and possible ambiguity. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 16:22, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support "HHL algorithm" is also used in standard reviews of the field, e.g., npj QI, RMP.--Qcomp (talk) 22:20, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support. I also agree the page should be renamed. Luca (talk)
Minor title correct
[edit]I agree with the new title but per WP:MOS, it should read HHL algorithm, in accordance with other "algorithm" articles. If nobody disagrees I will be making this correction tomorrow.--ReyHahn (talk) 11:45, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
