Suppose there is an error in the initial state, so that instead of starting with $\ket{00\dots 0}$, we run Grover's algorithm starting with the state
(1)\begin{align} \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + \epsilon^2}} (\ket{00\dots 0} + \epsilon\ket{11\dots 1}). \end{align}
How does this error affect the results of Grover's algorithm?
