We establish a connection between continuous-variable quantum computing and high-dimensional integration by showing that the outcome probabilities of continuous-variable instantaneous quantum polynomial (CV-IQP) circuits are given by…
Quantum algorithm is an algorithm for solving mathematical problems using quantum systems encoded as information, which is found to outperform classical algorithms in some specific cases. The objective of this study is to develop a quantum…
Drawing independent samples from a probability distribution is an important computational problem with applications in Monte Carlo algorithms, machine learning, and statistical physics. The problem can in principle be solved on a quantum…
Quantum computation is a rapidly progressing field today. What are its principles? In what sense is it distinct from conventional computation? What are its advantages and disadvantages? What type of problems can it address? How practical is…
In the context of finite Abelian groups two problems are presented and solved using quantum computing techniques. The first is the well--known Hidden Subgroup Problem, originally solved by Simon in a landmark work. The second is the Fully…
In this thesis, we investigate whether quantum algorithms can be used in the field of machine learning for both long and near term quantum computers. We will first recall the fundamentals of machine learning and quantum computing and then…
Quantum computer is the key to controlling complex processes. If its hardware, in general is successfully created on the basis of the physical baggage of the 20th century, the mathematical software is fundamentally lagging behind. Feynman's…
Quantum machine learning promises great speedups over classical algorithms, but it often requires repeated computations to achieve a desired level of accuracy for its point estimates. Bayesian learning focuses more on sampling from…
Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) can be considered the backbone of the modern power system optimization process, with a large application spectrum, from Unit Commitment and Optimal Transmission Switching to verifying Neural Networks…

Quantum computing promises the ability to compute properties of quantum systems exponentially faster than classical computers. Quantum advantage is achieved when a practical problem is solved more efficiently on a quantum computer than on a…

Recent developments in quantum hardware indicate that systems featuring more than 50 physical qubits are within reach. At this scale, classical simulation will no longer be feasible and there is a possibility that such quantum devices may…
We show that the lambda-q calculus can efficiently simulate quantum Turing machines by showing how the lambda-q calculus can efficiently simulate a class of quantum cellular automaton that are equivalent to quantum Turing machines. We…

We introduce the concept of strong quantum speedup. We prove that approximating the ground state energy of an instance of the time-independent Schr\"odinger equation, with $d$ degrees of freedom, $d$ large, enjoys strong exponential quantum…
Quantum computers hold promise for solving problems intractable for classical computers, especially those with high time or space complexity. Practical quantum advantage can be said to exist for such problems when the end-to-end time for…
