We study the relationship between problems solvable by quantum algorithms in polynomial time and those for which zero-knowledge proofs exist. In prior work, Aaronson [arxiv:quant-ph/0111102] showed an oracle separation between BQP and SZK,…
A quasigroup $Q$ is called maximally nonassociative if for $x,y,z\in Q$ we have that $x\cdot (y\cdot z) = (x\cdot y)\cdot z$ only if $x=y=z$. We show that, with finitely many exceptions, there exists a maximally nonassociative quasigroup of…
We provide a list of (mainly unsolved) problems in ordered and orderable groups. These were originally compiled 10 years ago by the last two authors. New problems have been added to the list. Progress on some of these is noted and…
We give an algorithm to solve the quantum hidden subgroup problem for maximal cyclic non-normal subgroups of the affine group of a finite field (if the field has order $q$ then the group has order $q(q-1)$) with probability $1-\varepsilon$…
This paper considers distributed computing on an anonymous quantum network, a network in which no party has a unique identifier and quantum communication and computation are available. It is proved that the leader election problem can…
We study the problem of finding a subgroup of a given order in a finite group, where the group is represented by its Cayley table. We analyze the complexity of the problem in the special case of abelian groups and present an optimal…
The hidden subgroup problem~(HSP) is one of the most important problems in quantum computation. Many problems for which quantum algorithm achieves exponential speedup over its classical counterparts can be reduced to the Abelian HSP.…
We investigate the multiplication group of a special class of quasigroup called AG-group. We prove some interesting results such as: the multiplication group of an AG-group of order n is non-abelian group of order 2n and its left section is…
We describe a large-scale project in applied automated deduction concerned with the following problem of considerable interest in loop theory: If $Q$ is a loop with commuting inner mappings, does it follow that $Q$ modulo its center is a…
The objective of this article is to formalize the definition of NP problems. We construct a mathematical model of discrete problems as independence systems with weighted elements. We introduce two auxiliary sets that characterize the…
Quantum computers are widely believed have an advantage over classical computers, and some have even published some empirical evidence that this is the case. However, these publications do not include a rigorous proof of this advantage,…
Whether the class QMA (Quantum Merlin Arthur) is equal to QMA1, or QMA with one-sided error, has been an open problem for years. This note helps to explain why the problem is difficult, by using ideas from real analysis to give a "quantum…
We prove that the word problem of a finitely generated group $G$ is in NP (solvable in polynomial time by a non-deterministic Turing machine) if and only if this group is a subgroup of a finitely presented group $H$ with polynomial…
A central problem in algebraic complexity, posed by J. Edmonds, asks to decide if the span of a given $l$-tuple $\V=(\V_1, \ldots, \V_l)$ of $N \times N$ complex matrices contains a non-singular matrix. In this paper, we provide a quiver…
We transform the oscillator algebra with kappa-deformed multiplication rule, proposed in [1],[2], into the oscillator algebra with kappa-deformed flip operator and standard multiplication. We recall that the kappa-multiplication of the…
Quantum counting is the task of determining the dimension of the subspace of states that are accepted by a quantum verifier circuit. It is the quantum analog of counting the number of valid solutions to NP problems -- a problem well-studied…
Encoding hard-constrained optimization problems into a variational quantum algorithm often turns out to be a challenging task. In this work, we provide a solution for the class of open-shop scheduling problems (OSSPs), which we achieve by…
We revisit the finite Abelian hidden subgroup problem (AHSP) from a mathematical perspective and make the following contributions. First, by employing amplitude amplification, we present an exact quantum algorithm for the finite AHSP, our…
In this paper, we consider the hidden subgroup problem (HSP) over the class of semi-direct product groups $\mathbb{Z}_{p^r}\rtimes\mathbb{Z}_q$, for p and q prime. We first present a classification of these groups in five classes. Then, we…
In this paper, the Identity Problem for certain groups, which asks if the subsemigroup generated by a given finite set of elements contains the identity element, is related to problems regarding ordered groups. Notably, the Identity Problem…
