A Separation Between Types of Quantum Oracle Separations

Scott Aaronson, Adam Bouland, Jordan Docter +1

Recent works have demonstrated that quantum oracles have subtle behavior, as access to inverse, conjugate or controlled queries can exponentially change the query complexity of cer…

Sparsity and Out-of-Distribution Generalization

Scott Aaronson, Lin Lin Lee, Jiawei Li

Explaining out-of-distribution generalization has been a central problem in epistemology since Goodman's "grue" puzzle in 1946. Today it's a central problem in machine learning, in…

Demonstrating an unconditional separation between quantum and classical information resources

William Kretschmer, Sabee Grewal, Matthew DeCross +8

A longstanding goal in quantum information science is to demonstrate quantum computations that cannot be feasibly reproduced on a classical computer. Such demonstrations mark major…

On verifiable quantum advantage with peaked circuit sampling

Scott Aaronson, Yuxuan Zhang

Over a decade after its proposal, the idea of using quantum computers to sample hard distributions has remained a key path to demonstrating quantum advantage. Yet a severe drawback…

PDQMA = DQMA = NEXP: QMA With Hidden Variables and Non-collapsing Measurements

Scott Aaronson, Sabee Grewal, Vishnu Iyer +2

We define and study a variant of QMA (Quantum Merlin Arthur) in which Arthur can make multiple non-collapsing measurements to Merlin's witness state, in addition to ordinary collap…
