Searching an Ordered List on a Quantum Computer
  Withdrawn by the author due to irreparable errors.   We present a quantum algorithm that in the black-box model performs a search in an ordered list of N elements. Using 3/4 log N + O(1) queries, it achieves a success probability of at least 1/2, whereas classically, log N - O(1) queries are needed to obtain constant success probability. Moreover, our algorithm employs the Haar transform and thus differs substantially from Grover's search algorithm and from algorithms relying on the quantum Fourier transform.
