We consider the problems of testing and learning an unknown $n$-qubit Hamiltonian $H$ from queries to its evolution operator $e^{-iHt}$ under the normalized Frobenius norm. We prove: 1. Local Hamiltonians: We give a tolerant testing…
Two-stage stochastic optimization is a framework for modeling uncertainty, where we have a probability distribution over possible realizations of the data, called scenarios, and decisions are taken in two stages: we make first-stage…
We study the complexity of the Local Hamiltonian Problem (denoted as LH-MIN) in the special case when a Hamiltonian obeys conditions of the Perron-Frobenius theorem: all off-diagonal matrix elements in the standard basis are real and…
We consider the CDMA (code-division multiple-access) multi-user detection problem for binary signals and additive white gaussian noise. We propose a spreading sequences scheme based on random sparse signatures, and a detection algorithm…
We show how measurement and nonlocality can be explained consistently with macroscopic realism and no-signaling, and causal relations for macroscopic quantities. Considering measurement of a field amplitude $\hat{x}$, we derive theorems…

This paper addresses the detection of a stochastic process in noise from irregular samples. We consider two hypotheses. The \emph{noise only} hypothesis amounts to model the observations as a sample of a i.i.d. Gaussian random variables…
Modern quantum devices are highly susceptible to errors, making the verification of their correct operation a critical problem. Usual tomographic methods rapidly become intractable as these devices are scaled up. In this paper, we introduce…
We consider a blind identification problem in which we aim to recover a statistical model of a network without knowledge of the network's edges, but based solely on nodal observations of a certain process. More concretely, we focus on…
We provide several advances to the understanding of the class of Quantum Merlin-Arthur proof systems (QMA), the quantum analogue of NP. Our central contribution is proving a longstanding conjecture that the Consistency of Local Density…
We consider the computational task of sampling a bit string $x$ from a distribution $\pi(x)=|\langle x|\psi\rangle|^2$, where $\psi$ is the unique ground state of a local Hamiltonian $H$. Our main result describes a direct link between the…

A central result in the study of Quantum Hamiltonian Complexity is that the k-Local hamiltonian problem is QMA-complete. In that problem, we must decide if the lowest eigenvalue of a Hamiltonian is bounded below some value, or above…
