Efficient methods for the simulation of quantum circuits on classic computers are crucial for their analysis due to the exponential growth of the problem size with the number of qubits. Here we study lumping methods based on bisimulation,…

We show how to provide a structure of probability space to the set of execution traces on a non-confluent abstract rewrite system, by defining a variant of a Lebesgue measure on the space of traces. Then, we show how to use this probability…

A central approach to algorithmic derandomization is to construct probability distributions with small support that "fool" randomized algorithms, often enabling efficient parallel (NC) implementations. An abstraction of this idea is fooling…
