The area of computing with uncertainty considers problems where some information about the input elements is uncertain, but can be obtained using queries. For example, instead of the weight of an element, we may be given an interval that is…
An open problem in communication complexity proposed by several authors is to prove that for every Boolean function f, the task of computing f(x AND y) has polynomially related classical and quantum bounded-error complexities. We solve a…
Quantum machine learning is considered one of the current research fields with immense potential. In recent years, Havl\'i\v{c}ek et al. [Nature 567, 209-212 (2019)] have proposed a quantum machine learning algorithm with quantum-enhanced…
Randomness is intrinsic to quantum mechanics; the outcome of a measurement on a quantum state is a random variable. This feature has been applied to randomness certification, where one party must decide whether the data they receive is…
Given a random function $f$ with domain $[2^n]$ and codomain $[2^m]$, with $m \geq n$, a collision of $f$ is a pair of distinct inputs with the same image. Collision finding is an ubiquitous problem in cryptanalysis, and it has been well…
The optimal runtime of a quantum computer searching a database is typically cited as the square root of the number of items in the database, which is famously achieved by Grover's algorithm. With parallel oracles, however, it is possible to…
We present a quantum algorithm which identifies with certainty a hidden subgroup of an arbitrary finite group G in only a polynomial (in log |G|) number of calls to the oracle. This is exponentially better than the best classical algorithm.…

The computational complexity of the circuit evaluation problem for finite semirings is considered, where semirings are not assumed to have an additive or multiplicative identity. The following dichotomy is shown: If a finite semiring is…
Estimating the eigenvalues of a unitary transformation U by standard phase estimation requires the implementation of controlled-U-gates which are not available if U is only given as a black box. We show that a simple trick allows to measure…

In this paper, we study the following variant of the junta learning problem. We are given oracle access to a Boolean function $f$ on $n$ variables that only depends on $k$ variables, and, when restricted to them, equals some predefined…
Quantum algorithms can be analyzed in a query model to compute Boolean functions where input is given in a black box and the aim is to compute function value for arbitrary input using as few queries as possible. We concentrate on quantum…
A polynomial identity testing algorithm must determine whether an input polynomial (given for instance by an arithmetic circuit) is identically equal to 0. In this paper, we show that a deterministic black-box identity testing algorithm for…
We consider the cyclotomic identity testing (CIT) problem: given a polynomial $f(x_1,\ldots,x_k)$, decide whether $f(\zeta_n^{e_1},\ldots,\zeta_n^{e_k})$ is zero, where $\zeta_n = e^{2\pi i/n}$ is a primitive complex $n$-th root of unity…
We construct a quantum searching model of a signed edge driven by a quantum walk. The time evolution operator of this quantum walk provides a weighted adjacency matrix induced by the assignment of sign to each edge. This sign can be…
