Lower Bounds on the Running Time of Two-Way Quantum Finite Automata and Sublogarithmic-Space Quantum Turing Machines

Authors: Zachary Remscrim

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 185, 12th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2021)

Abstract
The two-way finite automaton with quantum and classical states (2QCFA), defined by Ambainis and Watrous, is a model of quantum computation whose quantum part is extremely limited; however, as they showed, 2QCFA are surprisingly powerful: a 2QCFA with only a single-qubit can recognize the language L_{pal} = {w ∈ {a,b}^*:w is a palindrome} with bounded error in expected time 2^{O(n)}. We prove that their result cannot be improved upon: a 2QCFA (of any size) cannot recognize L_{pal} with bounded error in expected time 2^{o(n)}. This is the first example of a language that can be recognized with bounded error by a 2QCFA in exponential time but not in subexponential time. Moreover, we prove that a quantum Turing machine (QTM) running in space o(log n) and expected time 2^{n^{1-Ω(1)}} cannot recognize L_{pal} with bounded error; again, this is the first lower bound of its kind. Far more generally, we establish a lower bound on the running time of any 2QCFA or o(log n)-space QTM that recognizes any language L in terms of a natural "hardness measure" of L. This allows us to exhibit a large family of languages for which we have asymptotically matching lower and upper bounds on the running time of any such 2QCFA or QTM recognizer.

Logic Programming in Tabular Allegories

Authors: Emilio Jesús Gallego Arias and James B. Lipton

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 17, Technical Communications of the 28th International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP'12) (2012)

Abstract
We develop a compilation scheme and categorical abstract machine for execution of logic programs based on allegories, the categorical version of the calculus of relations. Operational and denotational semantics are developed using the same formalism, and query execution is performed using algebraic reasoning. Our work serves two purposes: achieving a formal model of a logic programming compiler and efficient runtime; building the base for incorporating features typical of functional programming in a declarative way, while maintaining 100% compatibility with existing Prolog programs.
