Bosonic Quantum Computational Complexity

Authors: Ulysse Chabaud, Michael Joseph, Saeed Mehraban, and Arsalan Motamedi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 325, 16th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2025)

Abstract
In recent years, quantum computing involving physical systems with continuous degrees of freedom, such as the bosonic quantum states of light, has attracted significant interest. However, a well-defined quantum complexity theory for these bosonic computations over infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces is missing. In this work, we lay the foundations for such a research program. We introduce natural complexity classes and problems based on bosonic generalizations of BQP, the local Hamiltonian problem, and QMA. We uncover several relationships and subtle differences between standard Boolean classical and discrete-variable quantum complexity classes, and identify outstanding open problems. Our main contributions include the following: 1) Bosonic computations. We show that the power of Gaussian computations up to logspace reductions is equivalent to bounded-error quantum logspace (BQL, characterized by the problem of inverting well-conditioned matrices). More generally, we define classes of continuous-variable quantum polynomial time computations with a bounded probability of error (CVBQP) based on gates generated by polynomial bosonic Hamiltonians and particle-number measurements. Due to the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, it is not a priori clear whether a decidable upper bound can be obtained for these classes. We identify complete problems for these classes, and we demonstrate a BQP lower bound and an EXPSPACE upper bound by proving bounds on the average energy throughout the computation. We further show that the problem of computing expectation values of polynomial bosonic observables at the output of bosonic quantum circuits using Gaussian and cubic phase gates is in PSPACE. 2) Bosonic ground energy problems. We prove that the problem of deciding whether the spectrum of a bosonic Hamiltonian is bounded from below is co-NP-hard. Furthermore, we show that the problem of finding the minimum energy of a bosonic Hamiltonian critically depends on the non-Gaussian stellar rank of the family of energy-constrained states one optimizes over: for zero stellar rank, i.e., optimizing over Gaussian states, it is NP-complete; for polynomially-bounded stellar rank, it is in QMA; for unbounded stellar rank, it is RE-hard, i.e., undecidable.

Simultaneous Haar Indistinguishability with Applications to Unclonable Cryptography

Authors: Prabhanjan Ananth, Fatih Kaleoglu, and Henry Yuen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 325, 16th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2025)

Abstract
We study a novel question about nonlocal quantum state discrimination: how well can non-communicating - but entangled - players distinguish between different distributions over quantum states? We call this task simultaneous state indistinguishability. Our main technical result is to show that the players cannot distinguish between each player receiving independently-chosen Haar random states versus all players receiving the same Haar random state. We show that this question has implications to unclonable cryptography, which leverages the no-cloning principle to build cryptographic primitives that are classically impossible to achieve. Understanding the feasibility of unclonable encryption, one of the key unclonable primitives, satisfying indistinguishability security in the plain model has been a major open question in the area. So far, the existing constructions of unclonable encryption are either in the quantum random oracle model or are based on new conjectures. We leverage our main result to present the first construction of unclonable encryption satisfying indistinguishability security, with quantum decryption keys, in the plain model. We also show other implications to single-decryptor encryption and leakage-resilient secret sharing. These applications present evidence that simultaneous Haar indistinguishability could be useful in quantum cryptography.

Approximate Reversal of Quantum Gaussian Dynamics

Authors: Ludovico Lami, Siddhartha Das, and Mark M. Wilde

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 73, 12th Conference on the Theory of Quantum Computation, Communication and Cryptography (TQC 2017)

Abstract
Recently, there has been focus on determining the conditions under which the data processing inequality for quantum relative entropy is satisfied with approximate equality. The solution of the exact equality case is due to Petz, who showed that the quantum relative entropy between two quantum states stays the same after the action of a quantum channel if and only if there is a reversal channel that recovers the original states after the channel acts. Furthermore, this reversal channel can be constructed explicitly and is now called the Petz recovery map. Recent developments have shown that a variation of the Petz recovery map works well for recovery in the case of approximate equality of the data processing inequality. Our main contribution here is a proof that bosonic Gaussian states and channels possess a particular closure property, namely, that the Petz recovery map associated to a bosonic Gaussian state \sigma and a bosonic Gaussian channel N is itself a bosonic Gaussian channel. We furthermore give an explicit construction of the Petz recovery map in this case, in terms of the mean vector and covariance matrix of the state \sigma and the Gaussian specification of the channel N.
