- This paper is significant because it presents a novel quantum data structure for undirected graphs, representing data in an intrinsically quantum way which has no classical analogue. Previous results consist of a quantum algorithm acting on essentially (superpositions) of classical data. We prove that, for certain problems, our data structure outperforms not only all known classical data structures, but all possible ones as well. The paper was highlighted as an Editor's Choice in Physical Review A.
