Measuring the
coset state
∣
g
0
+
K
⟩
in the
group shift operator
eigenbasis
samples uniformly from the
annihilator of a subgroup of a finite abelian group
K
⊥
. Indeed,
⟨
v
χ
∣
g
0
+
K
⟩
=
∣
G
∣∣
K
∣
χ
(
g
0
)
∑
k
∈
K
χ
(
k
)
,
(1)
so the
character-sum cancellation lemma
gives
probability
∣
K
∣/∣
G
∣
on
K
⊥
and zero elsewhere. The
modulus
of
χ
(
g
0
)
is one, so the offset has no effect on the
distribution
.
