Does Not Relativize

Adam Bouland, Andrew Huang, Anand Natarajan +2

We construct an oracle relative to which , resolving a long-standing open question in quantum complexity theory. Together with recent work d…

A quantum oracle separation between QMA(2) and QMA

John Bostanci, Sabee Grewal, Jonas Haferkamp +4

We find a quantum oracle relative to which . As a consequence, we resolve the no-disentanglers conjecture of Watrous: for every , any $(ε,…

Rounding Almost Commuting Hamiltonians

Islam Faisal, Anand Natarajan, Alexander Poremba

Commuting Hamiltonians lie at the boundary between classical constraint satisfaction and quantum many-body physics, exhibiting rich quantum structure while remaining more tractable…

A Relativizing MIP for BQP

Scott Aaronson, Anand Natarajan, Avishay Tal +1

Complexity class containments involving interactive proof classes are famously nonrelativizing: although , Fortnow and Sipser showed that that there…

Asynchronous Quantum Distributed Computing: Causality, Snapshots, and Global Operations

Siddhartha Visveswara Jayanti, Anand Natarajan

We initiate the study of asynchronous quantum distributed systems, focusing on the case of implementing atomic quantum global operations that can be decomposed into a collection of…

The status of the quantum PCP conjecture (games version)

Anand Natarajan, Chinmay Nirkhe

In classical complexity theory, the two definitions of probabilistically checkable proofs -- the constraint satisfaction and the nonlocal games version -- are computationally equal…

A Computational Tsirelson's Theorem for the Value of Compiled XOR Games

David Cui, Giulio Malavolta, Arthur Mehta +5

Nonlocal games are a foundational tool for understanding entanglement and constructing quantum protocols in settings with multiple spatially separated quantum devices. In this work…

The Computational Advantage of MIP* Vanishes in the Presence of Noise

Yangjing Dong, Honghao Fu, Anand Natarajan +3

Quantum multiprover interactive proof systems with entanglement MIP* are much more powerful than its classical counterpart MIP (Babai et al. '91, Ji et al. '20): while MIP = NEXP,…

A distribution testing oracle separation between QMA and QCMA

Anand Natarajan, Chinmay Nirkhe

It is a long-standing open question in quantum complexity theory whether the definition of quantum computation requires quantum witnesses $(\textsf{QMA…
