We establish connections between state tomography, pseudorandomness, quantum state synthesis, and circuit lower bounds. In particular, let $\mathfrak{C}$ be a family of non-uniform quantum circuits of polynomial size and suppose that there…

Motivated by the fundamental lower bounds questions in proof complexity, we initiate the study of matrix identities as hard instances for strong proof systems. A matrix identity of $d \times d$ matrices over a field $\mathbb{F}$, is a…

The \emph{Separation Lemma} is a simple yet powerful tool, akin to the well-known \emph{Isolation Lemma}, that guarantees the uniqueness of certain set sums. Bandopadhyay et al.\ introduced this lemma to establish lower bounds for the \ALP…

Many randomized algorithms can be derandomized efficiently using either the method of conditional expectations or probability spaces with low (almost-) independence. A series of papers, beginning with Luby (1993) and continuing with Berger…

Derandomization is one of the classic topics studied in the theory of parallel computations, dating back to the early 1980s. Despite much work, all known techniques lead to deterministic algorithms that are not work-efficient. For instance,…

We study the problem of obtaining deterministic black-box polynomial identity testing algorithms (PIT) for algebraic branching programs (ABPs) that are read-once and oblivious. This class has an deterministic white-box polynomial identity…

Self-learning is a classical approach for learning with both labeled and unlabeled observations which consists in giving pseudo-labels to unlabeled training instances with a confidence score over a predetermined threshold. At the same time,…
