We show that for any Boolean function f on {0,1}^n, the bounded-error quantum communication complexity of XOR functions $f\circ \oplus$ satisfies that $Q_\epsilon(f\circ \oplus) = O(2^d (\log\|\hat f\|_{1,\epsilon} + \log…
We study the one-clean-qubit model of quantum communication where one qubit is in a pure state and all other qubits are maximally mixed. We demonstrate a partial function that has a quantum protocol of cost $O(\log N)$ in this model,…
