A Noise Operator Approach to Quantum Query Complexity and Time-Space Tradeoff Lower Bounds

Paul Beame, Blake Holman, Niels Kornerup

Time and space (memory) are two of the most important measures of cost in computation, even more so for quantum computation. Yet, our tools for proving unconditional quantum tradeo…

Strong Selective and List-Decoding Direct Product Theorems for Quantum Query Complexity

Paul Beame, Niels Kornerup, Michael Whitmeyer

Quantum strong direct-product theorems for specific functions have been known for nearly two decades. These have been extended to general results for function computation and state…

Extending CDCL to disjunctions of parity equations

Paul Beame, Glenn Sun

Because CDCL produces proofs in the Resolution proof system, problems provably hard for Resolution are also provably hard for CDCL. Exponentially shorter proofs can sometimes be fo…

Multiparty Communication Complexity of Collision Finding

Paul Beame, Michael Whitmeyer

We prove an lower bound on the -party number-in-hand communication complexity of collision-finding. This implies a lower bound on t…

Quantum Time-Space Tradeoffs for Matrix Problems

Paul Beame, Niels Kornerup, Michael Whitmeyer

We consider the time and space required for quantum computers to solve a wide variety of problems involving matrices, many of which have only been analyzed classically in prior wor…

Cumulative Memory Lower Bounds for Randomized and Quantum Computation

Paul Beame, Niels Kornerup

Cumulative memory -- the sum of space used per step over the duration of a computation -- is a fine-grained measure of time-space complexity that was introduced to analyze cryptogr…
