Nonadiabatic quantum search algorithms

We present two new continuous time quantum search algorithms similar to the adiabatic search algorithm, but now without an adiabatic evolution. We find that both algorithms work for a wide range of values of the parameters of the Hamiltonian, and one of them has, as an additional feature that, for values of time larger than a characteristic one, it will converge to a state which can be close to the searched state.
