We consider the problem of decoding corrupted error correcting codes with NC$^0[\oplus]$ circuits in the classical and quantum settings. We show that any such classical circuit can correctly recover only a vanishingly small fraction of…

We provide a straightforward demonstration of a fundamental difference between classical and quantum mechanics for a single local system; namely the absence of a joint probability distribution of the position $x$ and momentum $p$.…

Many constructions of randomness extractors are known to work in the presence of quantum side information, but there also exist extractors which do not [Gavinsky {\it et al.}, STOC'07]. Here we find that spectral extractors $\psi$ with a…

We define a large class of quantum sources and prove a quantum analog of the asymptotic equipartition property. Our proof relies on using local measurements on the quantum source to obtain an associated classical source. The classical…

We consider the possibility of encoding m classical bits into much fewer n quantum bits so that an arbitrary bit from the original m bits can be recovered with a good probability, and we show that non-trivial quantum encodings exist that…

Verifying uniform conditions over continuous spaces through random sampling is fundamental in machine learning and control theory, yet classical coverage analyses often yield conservative bounds, particularly at small failure probabilities.…

We study the classical simulability of a polynomial-size quantum circuit $C_n$ on $n$ qubits followed by sparse classical post-processing (SCP) on $m$ bits, where $m \leq n \leq {\rm poly}(m)$. The SCP is described by a non-zero Boolean…
