The Entangled Quantum Polynomial Hierarchy Collapses

Authors: Sabee Grewal and Justin Yirka

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 300, 39th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2024)


Abstract
We introduce the entangled quantum polynomial hierarchy, QEPH, as the class of problems that are efficiently verifiable given alternating quantum proofs that may be entangled with each other. We prove QEPH collapses to its second level. In fact, we show that a polynomial number of alternations collapses to just two. As a consequence, QEPH = QRG(1), the class of problems having one-turn quantum refereed games, which is known to be contained in PSPACE. This is in contrast to the unentangled quantum polynomial hierarchy, QPH, which contains QMA(2). We also introduce DistributionQCPH, a generalization of the quantum-classical polynomial hierarchy QCPH where the provers send probability distributions over strings (instead of strings). We prove DistributionQCPH = QCPH, suggesting that only quantum superposition (not classical probability) increases the computational power of these hierarchies. To prove this equality, we generalize a game-theoretic result of Lipton and Young (1994) which says that, without loss of generality, the provers can send uniform distributions over a polynomial-size support. We also prove the analogous result for the polynomial hierarchy, i.e., DistributionPH = PH. Finally, we show that PH and QCPH are contained in QPH, resolving an open question of Gharibian et al. (2022).

Dimension Independent Disentanglers from Unentanglement and Applications

Authors: Fernando Granha Jeronimo and Pei Wu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 300, 39th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2024)


Abstract
Quantum entanglement, a distinctive form of quantum correlation, has become a key enabling ingredient in diverse applications in quantum computation, complexity, cryptography, etc. However, the presence of unwanted adversarial entanglement also poses challenges and even prevents the correct behaviour of many protocols and applications. In this paper, we explore methods to "break" the quantum correlations. Specifically, we construct a dimension-independent k-partite disentangler (like) channel from bipartite unentangled input. In particular, we show: For every d,𝓁 ≥ k ∈ ℕ^+, there is an efficient channel Λ : ℂ^{d𝓁} ⊗ ℂ^{d𝓁} → ℂ^{dk} such that for every bipartite separable density operator ρ₁⊗ ρ₂, the output Λ(ρ₁⊗ρ₂) is close to a k-partite separable state. Concretely, for some distribution μ on states from C^d, ║ Λ(ρ₁⊗ρ₂) - ∫ |ψ⟩⟨ψ|^{⊗k} dμ(ψ) ║₁ ≤ Õ((k³/𝓁)^{1/4}). Moreover, Λ(|ψ⟩⟨ψ|^{⊗𝓁} ⊗ |ψ⟩⟨ψ|^{⊗𝓁}) = |ψ⟩⟨ψ|^{⊗k}. Without the bipartite unentanglement assumption, the above bound is conjectured to be impossible and would imply QMA(2) = QMA. Leveraging multipartite unentanglement ensured by our disentanglers, we achieve the following: (i) a new proof that QMA(2) admits arbitrary gap amplification; (ii) a variant of the swap test and product test with improved soundness, addressing a major limitation of their original versions. More importantly, we demonstrate that unentangled quantum proofs of almost general real amplitudes capture NEXP, thereby greatly relaxing the non-negative amplitudes assumption in the recent work of QMA^+(2) = NEXP [Jeronimo and Wu, STOC 2023]. Specifically, our findings show that to capture NEXP, it suffices to have unentangled proofs of the form |ψ⟩ = √a |ψ_{+}⟩ + √{1-a} |ψ_{-}⟩ where |ψ_{+}⟩ has non-negative amplitudes, |ψ_{-}⟩ only has negative amplitudes and |a-(1-a)| ≥ 1/poly(n) with a ∈ [0,1]. Additionally, we present a protocol achieving an almost largest possible completeness-soundness gap before obtaining QMA^ℝ(k) = NEXP, namely, a 1/poly(n) additive improvement to the gap results in this equality.

Learning Low-Degree Quantum Objects

Authors: Srinivasan Arunachalam, Arkopal Dutt, Francisco Escudero Gutiérrez, and Carlos Palazuelos

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)


Abstract
We consider the problem of learning low-degree quantum objects up to ε-error in 𝓁₂-distance. We show the following results: (i) unknown n-qubit degree-d (in the Pauli basis) quantum channels and unitaries can be learned using O(1/ε^d) queries (which is independent of n), (ii) polynomials p:{-1,1}ⁿ → [-1,1] arising from d-query quantum algorithms can be learned from O((1/ε)^d ⋅ log n) many random examples (x,p(x)) (which implies learnability even for d = O(log n)), and (iii) degree-d polynomials p:{-1,1}ⁿ → [-1,1] can be learned through O(1/ε^d) queries to a quantum unitary U_p that block-encodes p. Our main technical contributions are new Bohnenblust-Hille inequalities for quantum channels and completely bounded polynomials.

Synchronizing Deterministic Push-Down Automata Can Be Really Hard

Authors: Henning Fernau, Petra Wolf, and Tomoyuki Yamakami

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 170, 45th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2020)


Abstract
The question if a deterministic finite automaton admits a software reset in the form of a so-called synchronizing word can be answered in polynomial time. In this paper, we extend this algorithmic question to deterministic automata beyond finite automata. We prove that the question of synchronizability becomes undecidable even when looking at deterministic one-counter automata. This is also true for another classical mild extension of regularity, namely that of deterministic one-turn push-down automata. However, when we combine both restrictions, we arrive at scenarios with a PSPACE-complete (and hence decidable) synchronizability problem. Likewise, we arrive at a decidable synchronizability problem for (partially) blind deterministic counter automata. There are several interpretations of what synchronizability should mean for deterministic push-down automata. This is depending on the role of the stack: should it be empty on synchronization, should it be always the same or is it arbitrary? For the automata classes studied in this paper, the complexity or decidability status of the synchronizability problem is mostly independent of this technicality, but we also discuss one class of automata where this makes a difference.

The 2CNF Boolean Formula Satisfiability Problem and the Linear Space Hypothesis

Authors: Tomoyuki Yamakami

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 83, 42nd International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2017)


Abstract
We aim at investigating the solvability/insolvability of nondeterministic logarithmic-space (NL) decision, search, and optimization problems parameterized by size parameters using simultaneously polynomial time and sub-linear space on multi-tape deterministic Turing machines. We are particularly focused on a special NL-complete problem, 2SAT - the 2CNF Boolean formula satisfiability problem-parameterized by the number of Boolean variables. It is shown that 2SAT with n variables and m clauses can be solved simultaneously polynomial time and (n/2^{c sqrt{log(n)}}) polylog(m+n) space for an absolute constant c>0. This fact inspires us to propose a new, practical working hypothesis, called the linear space hypothesis (LSH), which states that 2SAT_3-a restricted variant of 2SAT in which each variable of a given 2CNF formula appears as literals in at most 3 clauses-cannot be solved simultaneously in polynomial time using strictly "sub-linear" (i.e., n^{epsilon} polylog(n) for a certain constant epsilon in (0,1)) space. An immediate consequence of this working hypothesis is L neq NL. Moreover, we use our hypothesis as a plausible basis to lead to the insolvability of various NL search problems as well as the nonapproximability of NL optimization problems. For our investigation, since standard logarithmic-space reductions may no longer preserve polynomial-time sub-linear-space complexity, we need to introduce a new, practical notion of "short reduction." It turns out that overline{2SAT}_3 is complete for a restricted version of NL, called Syntactic NL or simply SNL, under such short reductions. This fact supports the legitimacy of our working hypothesis.
