This paper explores a fine-grained version of the Watrous conjecture, including the randomized and quantum algorithms with success probabilities arbitrarily close to $1/2$. Our contributions include the following: i) An analysis of the…
We propose an algebraic formulation for two distinct quantum algorithms: a quantum classification algorithm and a quantum search algorithm with a non-uniform initial distribution, both based on Clifford algebras and spinorial…
We describe a method to upper bound the quantum query complexity of Boolean formula evaluation problems, using fundamental theorems about the general adversary bound. This nonconstructive method can give an upper bound on query complexity…
We analyze the performance of classical and quantum search algorithms from a thermodynamic perspective, focusing on resources such as time, energy, and memory size. We consider two examples that are relevant to post-quantum cryptography:…
A quantum algorithm for an oracle problem can be understood as a quantum strategy for a player in a two-player zero-sum game in which the other player is constrained to play classically. I formalize this correspondence and give examples of…
Kernel methods are used extensively in classical machine learning, especially in the field of pattern analysis. In this paper, we propose a kernel-based quantum machine learning algorithm that can be implemented on a near-term, intermediate…
We use Deutsch's algorithm as a stand in for more complex quantum algorithms in order to determine how quantum properties of an environment manifest themselves in results that can be obtained on quantum computers. We model pure dephasing in…
Composition is something we take for granted in classical algorithms design, and in particular, we take it as a basic axiom that composing ``efficient'' algorithms should result in an ``efficient'' algorithm -- even using this intuition to…
In the exact quantum query model a successful algorithm must always output the correct function value. We investigate the function that is true if exactly $k$ or $l$ of the $n$ input bits given by an oracle are 1. We find an optimal…
Quantum computers are designed to outperform standard computers by running quantum algorithms. Areas in which quantum algorithms can be applied include cryptography, search and optimisation, simulation of quantum systems, and solving large…
Facing the worldwide steady progress in building quantum computers, it is crucial for cryptographic community to design quantum-safe cryptographic primitives. To achieve this, we need to investigate the capability of cryptographic analysis…
Quantum mechanical search induces polynomial speed up in an unsorted database search process. In case of classical linear search the computational time increases with the dimensionality of the query. However, quantum parallelism, inherent…
We consider online algorithms as a request-answer game. An adversary that generates input requests, and an online algorithm answers. We consider a generalized version of the game that has a buffer of limited size. The adversary loads data…
Functions are a fundamental object in mathematics, with countless applications to different fields, and are usually classified based on certain properties, given their domains and images. An important property of a real-valued function is…
Important nonlinear dynamics, such as those found in plasma and fluid systems, are typically hard to simulate on classical computers. Thus, if fault-tolerant quantum computers could efficiently solve such nonlinear problems, it would be a…
We propose a quantum representation of binary classification trees with binary features based on a probabilistic approach. By using the quantum computer as a processor for probability distributions, a probabilistic traversal of the decision…
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…
Recently developed quantum algorithms suggest that quantum computers can solve certain problems and perform certain tasks more efficiently than conventional computers. Among other reasons, this is due to the possibility of creating…
We study the quantum search algorithm as an open system. More specifically, we analyze the responses of that algorithm to an external monochromatic field, and to the decoherences introduced by the measurement process. We find that the…
Ordered search is the task of finding an item in an ordered list using comparison queries. The best exact classical algorithm for this fundamental problem uses $\lceil \log_{2}{n}\rceil$ queries for a list of length $n$. Quantum computers…
