Read What Matters: Query-Adaptive Quantization for KV Caches

Siddharth Bhandari, Lucas Gretta, Krishna Balasubramanian +1

KV-cache entries are stored before their future queries are known, but each decoding query needs precision in different places. We study this mismatch using separate budgets for re…

Shor's algorithm requires Fanout

Lucas Gretta, Malvika Raj Joshi

Shor's algorithm is a canonical quantum supremacy target whose core operation relies on the Quantum Fourier Transform (QFT). In this note, we resolve an open question of Fang, Fenn…

Polylogarithmic-Weight Dicke States in QAC and Arbitrary Symmetric States in QAC

Lucas Gretta, Meghal Gupta, Malvika Raj Joshi

An -qubit Dicke state of weight , is the uniform superposition over all -bit strings of Hamming weight . Dicke states are central to quantum algorithms exhibiting speed…

Parity QAC0 QAC0 is Fourier-Concentrated

Lucas Gretta, Meghal Gupta, Malvika Raj Joshi

A major open problem in understanding shallow quantum circuits (QAC) is whether they can compute Parity. We show that this question is solely about the Fourier spectrum of QAC$…

More Efficient -wise Independent Permutations from Random Reversible Circuits via log-Sobolev Inequalities

Lucas Gretta, William He, Angelos Pelecanos

We prove that the permutation computed by a reversible circuit with random -bit gates is -approximately -wise independen…

Sharp Noisy Binary Search with Monotonic Probabilities

Lucas Gretta, Eric Price

We revisit the noisy binary search model of Karp and Kleinberg, in which we have coins with unknown probabilities that we can flip. The coins are sorted by increasing $p_…
