Sample-Optimal Quantum Estimators for Pure-State Trace Distance and Fidelity via Samplizer

Qisheng Wang, Zhicheng Zhang

We settle the problem of estimating the trace distance and (square root) fidelity between -qubit pure quantum states to within additive error , given their independ…

Quantum Data Structure for Range Minimum Query

Qisheng Wang, Zhean Xu, Zhicheng Zhang

Given an array , the Range Minimum Query (RMQ) problem is to maintain a data structure that supports RMQ queries: given a range , find the index of the minimum ele…

A List of Complexity Bounds for Property Testing by Quantum Sample-to-Query Lifting

Kean Chen, Qisheng Wang, Zhicheng Zhang

Quantum sample-to-query lifting, a relation between quantum sample complexity and quantum query complexity presented in Wang and Zhang (SIAM J. Comput. 2025), was significantly str…

Time-Efficient Quantum Entropy Estimator via Samplizer

Qisheng Wang, Zhicheng Zhang

Entropy is a measure of the randomness of a system. Estimating the entropy of a quantum state is a basic problem in quantum information. In this paper, we introduce a time-efficien…

Access Control Threatened by Quantum Entanglement

Zhicheng Zhang, Mingsheng Ying

Access control is a cornerstone of computer security that prevents unauthorised access to resources. In this paper, we study access control in quantum computer systems. We present…
