We prove that, for many parameterized problems in the class FPT, the existence of polynomial kernels implies the collapse of the W-hierarchy (i.e., W[P] = FPT). The collapsing results are also extended to assumed exponential kernels for…

Quantum superposition states are behind many of the curious phenomena exhibited by quantum systems, including Bell non-locality, quantum interference, quantum computational speed-up, and the measurement problem. At the same time, many…

This article presents a technique for proving problems hard for classes of the polynomial hierarchy or for PSPACE. The rationale of this technique is that some problem restrictions are able to simulate existential or universal quantifiers.…

A quantum algorithm succeeds not because the superposition principle allows 'the computation of all values of a function at once' via 'quantum parallelism,' but rather because the structure of a quantum state space allows new sorts of…

We replace a Hamiltonian with a modular Hamiltonian in the spectral form factor and the level spacing distribution function. This study establishes a connection between quantities within Quantum Entanglement and Quantum Chaos. To have a…

We introduce an object called a \emph{subspace graph} that formalizes the technique of multidimensional quantum walks. Composing subspace graphs allows one to seamlessly combine quantum and classical reasoning, keeping a classical structure…

Similar formalisms have been independently developed in psychology, to deal with the issue of selective influences (deciding which of several experimental manipulations selectively influences each of several, generally non-independent,…

In this paper, we investigate the hierarchical structure of the $n$-partite quantum states. We present a whole set of hierarchical quantifications as a method of characterizing quantum states, which go beyond genuine multipartite…

The relationship between BQP and PH has been an open problem since the earliest days of quantum computing. We present evidence that quantum computers can solve problems outside the entire polynomial hierarchy, by relating this question to…

While the superposition of quantum evolutions is known to produce interference effects, the interference between evolutions with regular and chaotic classical limits remains largely unexplored. Here, we use a Mach-Zehnder interferometer to…

Stoquasticity, originating in sign-problem-free physical systems, gives rise to $\sf StoqMA$, introduced by Bravyi, Bessen, and Terhal (2006), a quantum-inspired intermediate class between $\sf MA$ and $\sf AM$. Unentanglement similarly…

Entangled quantum systems can exhibit correlations that cannot be simulated classically. For historical reasons such correlations are called "Bell inequality violations." We give two new two-player games with Bell inequality violations that…

In this paper we show that PSPACE is equal to 4th level in the polynomial hierarchy. We also deduce a lot of important consequences. True quantified Boolean formula is a generalisation of the Boolean Satisfiability Problem, where…

We consider one-round games between a classical verifier and two provers who share entanglement. We show that when the constraints enforced by the verifier are `unique' constraints (i.e., permutations), the value of the game can be well…
