We consider the scenario where Alice wants to send a secret (classical) $n$-bit message to Bob using a classical key, and where only one-way transmission from Alice to Bob is possible. In this case, quantum communication cannot help to…
In this paper we provide new bounds on classical and quantum distributional communication complexity in the two-party, one-way model of communication. In the classical model, our bound extends the well known upper bound of Kremer, Nisan and…
A stochastic process's statistical complexity stands out as a fundamental property: the minimum information required to synchronize one process generator to another. How much information is required, though, when synchronizing over a…
Quantum resources, such as entanglement or quantum communication, offer significant communication advantages in information processing. We develop an operational framework for realizing these communication advantages in resource-constrained…
We study the relationship between various one-way communication complexity measures of a composed function with the analogous decision tree complexity of the outer function. We consider two gadgets: the AND function on 2 inputs, and the…
In the oracle identification problem, we are given oracle access to an unknown N-bit string x promised to belong to a known set C of size M and our task is to identify x. We present a quantum algorithm for the problem that is optimal in its…
We give improved separations for the query complexity analogue of the log-approximate-rank conjecture i.e. we show that there are a plethora of total Boolean functions on $n$ input bits, each of which has approximate Fourier sparsity at…
We study the problem of finding $K$ collision pairs in a random function $f : [N] \rightarrow [N]$ by using a quantum computer. We prove that the number of queries to the function in the quantum random oracle model must increase…
Quantitative information flow (QIF) is concerned with measuring how much of a secret is leaked to an adversary who observes the result of a computation that uses it. Prior work has shown that QIF techniques based on abstract interpretation…
In some scenarios there are ways of conveying information with many fewer, even exponentially fewer, qubits than possible classically. Moreover, some of these methods have a very simple structure--they involve only few message exchanges…
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.…
We consider the class of functions whose value depends only on the intersection of the input X_1,X_2, ..., X_t; that is, for each F in this class there is an f_F: 2^{[n]} \to {0,1}, such that F(X_1,X_2, ..., X_t) = f_F(X_1 \cap X_2 \cap ...…
We establish two results regarding the query complexity of bounded-error randomized algorithms. * Bounded-error separation theorem. There exists a total function $f : \{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}$ whose $\epsilon$-error randomized query complexity…
We consider several models of 1-round classical and quantum communication, some of these models have not been defined before. We "almost separate" the models of simultaneous quantum message passing with shared entanglement and the model of…
Consider the problem of computing quantized linear functions with only a few queries. Formally, given $\mathbf{x}\in \mathbb{R}^k$, our goal is to encode $\mathbf{x}$ as $\mathbf{c} \in \mathbb{R}^n$, for $n > k$, so that for any…
In this paper, we prove a strong XOR lemma for bounded-round two-player randomized communication. For a function $f:\mathcal{X}\times \mathcal{Y}\rightarrow\{0,1\}$, the $n$-fold XOR function $f^{\oplus n}:\mathcal{X}^n\times…
We prove that there is a trade-off relation between the entanglement cost and the number of rounds of communication, for two distant parties to accomplish a bidirectional quantum information task by local operations and classical…
We study two basic graph parameters, the chromatic number and the orthogonal rank, in the context of classical and quantum exact communication complexity. In particular, we consider two types of communication problems that we call promise…
We show two results about the relationship between quantum and classical messages. Our first contribution is to show how to replace a quantum message in a one-way communication protocol by a deterministic message, establishing that for all…
We obtain a general connection between a quantum advantage in communication complexity and non-locality. We show that given any protocol offering a (sufficiently large) quantum advantage in communication complexity, there exists a way of…
