How to Build Advanced Quantum Algorithms Using Qrisp with Grover Search, Quantum Phase Estimation, and QAOA

In this tutorial, we present an advanced, hands-on tutorial that demonstrates how we use Qrisp to build and execute non-trivial quantum algorithms. We walk through core Qrisp abstractions for quantum data, construct entangled states, and then progressively implement Grover’s search with automatic uncomputation, Quantum Phase Estimation, and a full QAOA workflow for the MaxCut problem.
