A Quantum Lovasz Local Lemma

Andris Ambainis, Julia Kempe, Or Sattath

The Lovasz Local Lemma (LLL) is a powerful tool in probability theory to show the existence of combinatorial objects meeting a prescribed collection of "weakly dependent" criteria.…

The Need for Structure in Quantum Speedups

Scott Aaronson, Andris Ambainis

Is there a general theorem that tells us when we can hope for exponential speedups from quantum algorithms, and when we cannot? In this paper, we make two advances toward such a th…

Random tensor theory: extending random matrix theory to random product states

Andris Ambainis, Aram W. Harrow, Matthew B. Hastings

We consider a problem in random matrix theory that is inspired by quantum information theory: determining the largest eigenvalue of a sum of p random product states in (C^d)^{otime…

Non-adiabatic pumping of single electrons affected by magnetic fields

Christoph Leicht, Bernd Kaestner, Vyacheslavs Kashcheyevs +4

Non-adiabatic pumping of discrete charges, realized by a dynamical quantum dot in an AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure, is studied under influence of a perpendicular magnetic field. Appl…

Limits on entropic uncertainty relations for 3 and more MUBs

Andris Ambainis

We consider entropic uncertainty relations for outcomes of the measurements of a quantum state in 3 or more mutually unbiased bases (MUBs), chosen from the standard construction of…

Average/Worst-Case Gap of Quantum Query Complexities by On-Set Size

Andris Ambainis, Kazuo Iwama, Masaki Nakanishi +4

This paper considers the query complexity of the functions in the family F_{N,M} of N-variable Boolean functions with onset size M, i.e., the number of inputs for which the functio…

Autoionization of an ultracold Rydberg gas through resonant dipole coupling

T. Amthor, J. Denskat, C. Giese +4

We investigate a possible mechanism for the autoionization of ultracold Rydberg gases, based on the resonant coupling of Rydberg pair states to the ionization continuum. Unlike an…
