We study the computational complexity of the problem SFT (Sum-free Formula partial Trace): given a tensor formula F over a subsemiring of the complex field (C,+,.) plus a positive integer k, under the restrictions that all inputs are column…

Quantum algorithms require less operations than classical algorithms. The exact reason of this has not been pinpointed until now. Our explanation is that quantum algorithms know in advance 50% of the solution of the problem they will find…

A new model of quantum computation is considered, in which the connections between gates are programmed by the state of a quantum register. This new model of computation is shown to be more powerful than the usual quantum computation, e. g.…

In this paper we present a canonical quantum computing method to estimate the weighted sum w(k)f(k) of the values taken by a discrete function f and real weights w(k). The canonical aspect of the method comes from relying on a single linear…

Given a compact basic semi-algebraic set $K\subset R^n\times R^m$, a simple set $B$ (box or ellipsoid), and some semi-algebraic function $f$, we consider sets defined with quantifiers, of the form $R_f:=\{x\in B: \mbox{$f(x,y)\leq 0$ for…
