Quantum Meets the Minimum Circuit Size Problem

Nai-Hui Chia, Chi-Ning Chou, Jiayu Zhang +1

In this work, we initiate the study of the Minimum Circuit Size Problem (MCSP) in the quantum setting. MCSP is a problem to compute the circuit complexity of Boolean functions. It…

Spoofing Linear Cross-Entropy Benchmarking in Shallow Quantum Circuits

Boaz Barak, Chi-Ning Chou, Xun Gao

The linear cross-entropy benchmark (Linear XEB) has been used as a test for procedures simulating quantum circuits. Given a quantum circuit with inputs and outputs and purp…

Optimal Streaming Approximations for all Boolean Max-2CSPs and Max-kSAT

Chi-Ning Chou, Alexander Golovnev, Santhoshini Velusamy

We prove tight upper and lower bounds on approximation ratios of all Boolean Max-2CSP problems in the streaming model. Specifically, for every type of Max-2CSP problem, we give an…

ODE-Inspired Analysis for the Biological Version of Oja's Rule in Solving Streaming PCA

Chi-Ning Chou, Mien Brabeeba Wang

Oja's rule [Oja, Journal of mathematical biology 1982] is a well-known biologically-plausible algorithm using a Hebbian-type synaptic update rule to solve streaming principal compo…

Closure of VP under taking factors: a short and simple proof

Chi-Ning Chou, Mrinal Kumar, Noam Solomon

In this note, we give a short, simple and almost completely self contained proof of a classical result of Kaltofen [Kal86, Kal87, Kal89] which shows that if an variate degree $…

Tracking the Norm with Constant Update Time

Chi-Ning Chou, Zhixian Lei, Preetum Nakkiran

The \emph{ tracking problem} is the task of obtaining a streaming algorithm that, given access to a stream of items from a universe , outputs at e…
