Abstract
We study the relative advantage of classical and quantum distinguishers of bounded query complexity over n-bit strings, focusing on the case of a single quantum query. A construction of Aaronson and Ambainis (STOC 2015) yields a pair of distributions that is ε-distinguishable by a one-query quantum algorithm, but O(ε k/√n)-indistinguishable by any non-adaptive k-query classical algorithm.
We show that every pair of distributions that is ε-distinguishable by a one-query quantum algorithm is distinguishable with k classical queries and (1) advantage min{Ω(ε√{k/n})), Ω(ε²k²/n)} non-adaptively (i.e., in one round), and (2) advantage Ω(ε²k/√{n log n}) in two rounds.
As part of our analysis, we introduce a general method for converting unbiased estimators into distinguishers.
