Polynomial-time classical algorithms for mean-field models up to the glass transition

Alexander Schmidhuber, Alexander Zlokapa

The Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model is a strongly interacting fermionic system that has been well-studied in condensed matter and high energy physics. It is highly quantum: Gaussian states…

On The Complexity of Redundancy-Free Quantum Hamiltonians

Matthew B. Hastings, Alexander Schmidhuber

We consider a class of redudancy-free Hamiltonians, which are those where the trace vanishes for any product of Hamiltonian terms in which at least one term appears an odd number o…

Adiabatic Quantum Phase Estimation

Alexander Schmidhuber, Seth Lloyd

Quantum phase estimation (QPE) is a central algorithmic primitive that estimates eigenvalues of a Hamiltonian up to precision in Heisenberg-limited time . Standard ga…

Quartic quantum speedups for community detection

Alexander Schmidhuber, Alexander Zlokapa

Community detection is a foundational problem in data science. Its natural extension to hypergraphs captures higher-order correlations beyond pairwise interactions. In this work, w…

Hamiltonian Decoded Quantum Interferometry

Alexander Schmidhuber, Jonathan Z. Lu, Noah Shutty +3

We introduce Hamiltonian Decoded Quantum Interferometry (HDQI), a quantum algorithm that utilizes coherent Bell measurements and the symplectic representation of the Pauli group to…

Constructive interference at the edge of quantum ergodic dynamics

Dmitry A. Abanin, Rajeev Acharya, Laleh Aghababaie-Beni +262

Quantum observables in the form of few-point correlators are the key to characterizing the dynamics of quantum many-body systems. In dynamics with fast entanglement generation, qua…

Provable quantum speedups for computing persistence in topological data analysis

Casper Gyurik, Alexander Schmidhuber, Robbie King +2

Topological data analysis (TDA) aims to extract noise-robust features from a data set by examining the number and persistence of holes in its topology. We provide an efficient quan…

Optimization by Decoded Quantum Interferometry

Stephen P. Jordan, Noah Shutty, Mary Wootters +6

Achieving superpolynomial speedups for optimization has long been a central goal for quantum algorithms. Here we introduce Decoded Quantum Interferometry (DQI), a quantum algorithm…

Quartic quantum speedups for planted inference

Alexander Schmidhuber, Ryan O'Donnell, Robin Kothari +1

We describe a quantum algorithm for the Planted Noisy XOR problem (also known as sparse Learning Parity with Noise) that achieves a nearly quartic (th power) speedup over the…

Measurement events relative to temporal quantum reference frames

Ladina Hausmann, Alexander Schmidhuber, Esteban Castro-Ruiz

The Page-Wootters formalism is a proposal for reconciling the background-dependent, quantum-mechanical notion of time with the background independence of general relativity. Howeve…

Complexity-Theoretic Limitations on Quantum Algorithms for Topological Data Analysis

Alexander Schmidhuber, Seth Lloyd

Quantum algorithms for topological data analysis (TDA) seem to provide an exponential advantage over the best classical approach while remaining immune to dequantization procedures…
