In quantum embedding theories, a quantum many-body system is divided into localized clusters of sites which are treated with an accurate `high-level' theory and glued together self-consistently by a less accurate `low-level' theory at the…
Discrete translational symmetry plays a fundamental role in condensed matter physics and lattice gauge theories, enabling the analysis of systems that would otherwise be intractable. Despite this, many open problems remain. Quantum…
The NP-hardness of the closest vector problem (CVP) is an important basis for quantum-secure cryptography, in much the same way that integer factorisation's conjectured hardness is at the foundation of cryptosystems like RSA. Recent work…
Many differentially private and classical non-private graph algorithms rely crucially on determining whether some property of each vertex meets a threshold. For example, for the $k$-core decomposition problem, the classic peeling algorithm…
We consider the NP-hard problem of minimizing a convex quadratic function over the integer lattice ${\bf Z}^n$. We present a simple semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxation for obtaining a nontrivial lower bound on the optimal value of the…
We introduce the Hidden Polynomial Function Graph Problem as a natural generalization of an abelian Hidden Subgroup Problem (HSP) where the subgroups and their cosets correspond to graphs of linear functions over the finite field F_p. For…
We propose a quantum soft-covering problem for a given general quantum channel and one of its output states, which consists in finding the minimum rank of an input state needed to approximate the given channel output. We then prove a…
One of the central issues in the hidden subgroup problem is to bound the sample complexity, i.e., the number of identical samples of coset states sufficient and necessary to solve the problem. In this paper, we present general bounds for…
A promising area of applications for quantum computing is in linear algebra problems. In this work, we introduce two new quantum t-SVD (tensor-SVD) algorithms. The first algorithm is largely based on previous work that proposed a quantum…
We give a deterministic O(log n)^n algorithm for the {\em Shortest Vector Problem (SVP)} of a lattice under {\em any} norm, improving on the previous best deterministic bound of n^O(n) for general norms and nearly matching the bound of…
We consider an inverse problem for a finite graph $(X,E)$ where we are given a subset of vertices $B\subset X$ and the distances $d_{(X,E)}(b_1,b_2)$ of all vertices $b_1,b_2\in B$. The distance of points $x_1,x_2\in X$ is defined as the…
We present a quantum algorithm for finding the minimum of a function based on multistep quantum computation and apply it for optimization problems with continuous variables, in which the variables of the problem are discretized to form the…
We give a novel algorithm for enumerating lattice points in any convex body, and give applications to several classic lattice problems, including the Shortest and Closest Vector Problems (SVP and CVP, respectively) and Integer Programming…
Any ideal in a number field can be factored into a product of prime ideals. In this paper we study the prime ideal shortest vector problem (SVP) in the ring $ \Z[x]/(x^{2^n} + 1) $, a popular choice in the design of ideal lattice based…
The longstanding open problem of approximating all singular vertex couplings in a quantum graph is solved. We present a construction in which the edges are decoupled; an each pair of their endpoints is joined by an edge carrying a $\delta$…
We propose a novel variational method for solving the sub-graph isomorphism problem on a gate-based quantum computer. The method relies (1) on a new representation of the adjacency matrices of the underlying graphs, which requires a number…
Computing the unit group and solving the principal ideal problem for a number field are two of the main tasks in computational algebraic number theory. This paper proposes efficient quantum algorithms for these two problems when the number…
In this paper, we consider the ``Shortest Superstring Problem''(SSP) or the ``Shortest Common Superstring Problem''(SCS). The problem is as follows. For a positive integer $n$, a sequence of n strings $S=(s^1,\dots,s^n)$ is given. We should…
We define two new problems called SIAP and CAP related to solving SIVP and CVP in a subset of lattices called Simultaneous Approximation (SA) lattices. We give dimension- and gap-preserving, deterministic polynomial-time and space…
The shortest vector problem (SVP) over ideal lattices is closely related to the Ring-LWE problem, which is widely used to build post-quantum cryptosystems. Power-of-two cyclotomic fields are frequently adopted to instantiate Ring-LWE. Pan…
