We consider the fundamental problem of constructing fast and small circuits for binary addition. We propose a new algorithm with running time $\mathcal O(n \log_2 n)$ for constructing linear-size $n$-bit adder circuits with a significantly…
The problem of simulatability of quantum processes using classical resources plays a cornerstone role for quantum computing. Quantum circuits can be simulated classically, e.g., using Monte Carlo sampling techniques applied to…
In this paper we extend the algorithm for extraspecial groups in \cite{iss07}, and show that the hidden subgroup problem in nil-2 groups, that is in groups of nilpotency class at most 2, can be solved efficiently by a quantum procedure. The…
We consider the minimal k-grouping problem: given a graph G=(V,E) and a constant k, partition G into subgraphs of diameter no greater than k, such that the union of any two subgraphs has diameter greater than k. We give a silent…
We bound the volume of thick embeddings of finite graphs into the Heisenberg group, as well as the volume of coarse wirings of finite graphs into groups with polynomial growth. This work follows the work of Kolmogorov-Brazdin, Gromov-Guth…
We present a classical algorithm that, for any $D$-dimensional geometrically-local, quantum circuit $C$ of polylogarithmic-depth, and any bit string $x \in {0,1}^n$, can compute the quantity $|<x|C|0^{\otimes n}>|^2$ to within any…
For a convergence group equipped with an expanding coarse-cocycle, we construct finitely generated free subsemigroups, which we call $\textit{Bishop--Jones}$ $\textit{semigroups}$, of critical exponent arbitrarily close to but strictly less…
Mulmuley and Sohoni (GCT1 in SICOMP 2001, GCT2 in SICOMP 2008) proposed to view the permanent versus determinant problem as a specific orbit closure problem and to attack it by methods from geometric invariant and representation theory. We…
We introduce the notion of splitting subgroups of quasireducitve supergroups, and explain their significance. For $GL(m|n)$, $Q(n)$, and defect one basic classical supergroups, we give explicit splitting subgroups. We further prove they are…
It has been known for almost three decades that many $\mathrm{NP}$-hard optimization problems can be solved in polynomial time when restricted to structures of constant treewidth. In this work we provide the first extension of such results…
A group is coherent if all its finitely generated subgroups are finitely presented. In this article we provide a criterion for positively determining the coherence of a group. This criterion is based upon the notion of the perimeter of a…
We present optimized quantum circuits for GF$(2^m)$ multiplication and division operations, which are essential computing primitives in various quantum algorithms. Our ancilla-free GF multiplication circuit has the gate count complexity of…
The main result of this paper is the decidability of the membership problem for $2\times 2$ nonsingular integer matrices. Namely, we will construct the first algorithm that for any nonsingular $2\times 2$ integer matrices $M_1,\dots,M_n$…
In this paper, we present a notion of quasiconvexity in the setting of finitely-generated groups with hyperbolically embedded subgroups. Our main result shows that this notion yields uniform quasiconvex constants in the setting of coned-off…
We continue the analysis of the Modular Isomorphism Problem for $2$-generated $p$-groups with cyclic derived subgroup, $p>2$, started in [D. Garc\'ia-Lucas, \'A. del R\'io, and M. Stanojkovski. On group invariants determined by modular…
We study quantum isometry groups, denoted by $\mathbb{Q}(\Gamma, S)$, of spectral triples on $C^*_r(\Gamma)$ for a finitely generated discrete group coming from the word-length metric with respect to a symmetric generating set $S$. We first…
The multiplier representation of the generalized symmetry group of a quasiperiodic flow on the n-torus defines, for each subgroup of the multiplier group of the flow, a group invariant of the smooth conjugacy class of that flow. This group…
Let $G$ be a finite group. A finite collection of elements from $G$, where the order is disregarded and repetitions are allowed, is said to be a product-one sequence if its elements can be ordered such that their product in $G$ equals the…
A quasigroup is a pair $(Q, \cdot)$ where $Q$ is a non-empty set and $\cdot$ is a binary operation on $Q$ such that for every $(u, v) \in Q^2$ there exists a unique $(x, y) \in Q^2$ such that $u \cdot x = v = y \cdot u$. Let $q$ be an odd…
