In this thesis, we answer several questions about the behaviour of prover-verifier interactions under parallel repetition when quantum information is allowed, and the verifier acts independently in them. We first consider the case in which…

This paper studies a generalization of multi-prover interactive proofs in which a verifier interacts with two competing teams of provers: one team attempts to convince the verifier to accept while the other attempts to convince the verifier…

Condon and Lipton (FOCS 1989) showed that the class of languages having a space-bounded interactive proof system (IPS) is a proper subset of decidable languages, where the verifier is a probabilistic Turing machine. In this paper, we show…

If two classical provers share an entangled state, the resulting interactive proof system is significantly weakened [quant-ph/0404076]. We show that for the case where the verifier computes the XOR of two binary answers, the resulting proof…

With today's quantum processors venturing into regimes beyond the capabilities of classical devices [1-3], we face the challenge to verify that these devices perform as intended, even when we cannot check their results on classical…

We consider the recursive Fourier sampling problem (RFS), and show that there exists an interactive proof for RFS with an efficient classical verifier and efficient quantum prover.
