We investigate quantization coefficients for self-similar probability measures \mu on limit sets which are generated by systems S of infinitely many contractive similarities and by probabilistic vectors. The theory of quantization…
We study functions on the infinite-dimensional Hamming cube $\{-1,1\}^\infty$, in particular Boolean functions into $\{-1,1\}$, generalising results on analysis of Boolean functions on $\{-1,1\}^n$ for $n\in\mathbb{N}$. The notion of noise…
We consider the quantum complexities of the following three problems: searching an ordered list, sorting an un-ordered list, and deciding whether the numbers in a list are all distinct. Letting N be the number of elements in the input list,…
We show that quantification of the performance of quantum-enhanced measurement schemes based on the concept of quantum Fisher information yields asymptotically equivalent results as the rigorous Bayesian approach, provided generic…
We prove that any given function can be smoothly approximated by functions lying in the kernel of a linear operator involving at least one fractional component. The setting in which we work is very general, since it takes into account…
We study the computation complexity of Boolean functions in the quantum black box model. In this model our task is to compute a function $f:\{0,1\}\to\{0,1\}$ on an input $x\in\{0,1\}^n$ that can be accessed by querying the black box.…
Let $p \in (0, \infty)$ be a constant and let $\{\xi_n\} \subset L^p(\Omega, {\mathcal F}, \P)$ be a sequence of random variables. For any integers $m, n \ge 0$, denote $S_{m, n} = \sum_{k=m}^{m + n} \xi_k$. It is proved that, if there…
We study the quantum summation QS algorithm of Brassard, Hoyer, Mosca and Tapp, which approximates the arithmetic mean of a Boolean function defined on $N$ elements. We present sharp error bounds of the QS algorithm in the worst-average…
In recent years, intensive effort has gone into developing numerical tools for exact quantum mechanical calculations that are based on Bohmian mechanics. As part of this effort we have recently developed as alternative formulation of…
We present a new type of monotone submodular functions: \emph{multi-peak submodular functions}. Roughly speaking, given a family of sets $\cF$, we construct a monotone submodular function $f$ with a high value $f(S)$ for every set $S \in…
We study the query complexity of Bayesian Private Learning: a learner wishes to locate a random target within an interval by submitting queries, in the presence of an adversary who observes all of her queries but not the responses. How many…
We present several quantum algorithms for performing nearest-neighbor learning. At the core of our algorithms are fast and coherent quantum methods for computing distance metrics such as the inner product and Euclidean distance. We prove…
Experimental characterizations of a quantum system involve the measurement of expectation values of observables for a preparable state |psi> of the quantum system. Such expectation values can be measured by repeatedly preparing |psi> and…
Quantum counting is the task of determining the dimension of the subspace of states that are accepted by a quantum verifier circuit. It is the quantum analog of counting the number of valid solutions to NP problems -- a problem well-studied…
We prove matching direct and inverse theorems for uniform polynomial approximation with $A^*$ weights (a subclass of doubling weights suitable for approximation in the $L_\infty$ norm) having finitely many zeros and not too "rapidly…
This paper presents a novel systematic methodology to obtain new simple and tight approximations, lower bounds, and upper bounds for the Gaussian Q-function, and functions thereof, in the form of a weighted sum of exponential functions.…
We propose a lower estimation for computing quantity of the inverses of Euler's function. We answer the question about the multiplicity of $m$ in the equation $\varphi(x) = m$ \cite{Ford}. An analytic expression for exact multiplicity of $m…
In this work, we study the phase estimation problem. We show an alternative, simpler and self-contained proof of query lower bounds. Technically, compared to the previous proofs [NW99, Bes05], our proof is considerably elementary.…
There is a wide range of applications where the local extrema of a function are the key quantity of interest. However, there is surprisingly little work on methods to infer local extrema with uncertainty quantification in the presence of…
Multiparameter quantum estimation is made difficult by the following three obstacles. First, incompatibility among different physical quantities poses a limit on the attainable precision. Second, the ultimate precision is not saturated…
