We show that if a language is recognized within certain error bounds by constant-depth quantum circuits over a finite family of gates, then it is computable in (classical) polynomial time. In particular, our results imply EQNC^0 is…
Motivated by the quantum algorithm in \cite{MN05} for testing commutativity of black-box groups, we study the following problem: Given a black-box finite ring $R=\angle{r_1,...,r_k}$ where $\{r_1,r_2,...,r_k\}$ is an additive generating set…
In an earlier article [3], we presented an algorithm that can be used to rigorously check whether a specific cosine or sine polynomial is nonnegative in a given interval or not. The algorithm proves to be an indispensable tool in…

We say that a circuit $C$ over a field $F$ functionally computes an $n$-variate polynomial $P$ if for every $x \in \{0,1\}^n$ we have that $C(x) = P(x)$. This is in contrast to syntactically computing $P$, when $C \equiv P$ as formal…
