We prove that for a large class of functions $P$ and $Q$, there exists $d\in (0,1)$ such that the discrete bilinear Radon transform $$B^{\rm dis}_{P,Q}(f,g)(n)=\sum_{m\in\mathbb{Z}\setminus\{0\}} f(n-P(m))g(n-Q(m))\frac{1}{m}$$ is bounded…
An $n$-qubit quantum circuit is said to be peaked if it has an output probability that is at least inverse-polynomially large as a function of $n$. We describe a classical algorithm with quasipolynomial runtime $n^{O(\log{n})}$ that…
