Spectrum Estimation is Almost as Hard as Tomography

Marco Fanizza, Ryan O'Donnell, Chirag Wadhwa

We study the sample complexity of estimating and testing fundamental unitarily invariant properties of unknown quantum states; namely, the tasks of spectrum estimation, von Neumann…

Non-iid hypothesis testing: from classical to quantum

Giacomo De Palma, Marco Fanizza, Connor Mowry +1

We study hypothesis testing (aka state certification) in the non-identically distributed setting. A recent work (Garg et al. 2023) considered the classical case, in which one is gi…

SPAM Tolerance for Pauli Error Estimation

Ryan O'Donnell, Samvitti Sharma

The Pauli channel is a fundamental model of noise in quantum systems, motivating the task of Pauli error estimation. We present an algorithm that builds on the reduction to Populat…

Generalized Samorodnitsky noisy function inequalities, with applications to error-correcting codes

Olakunle S. Abawonse, Jan Hazla, Ryan O'Donnell

An inequality by Samorodnitsky states that if is a nonnegative boolean function, and is chosen by randomly including each coor…

Instance-Optimal Quantum State Certification with Entangled Measurements

Ryan O'Donnell, Chirag Wadhwa

We consider the task of quantum state certification: given a description of a hypothesis state and multiple copies of an unknown state , a tester aims to determine whether t…

Noise stability of functions with low influences: invariance and optimality

Elchanan Mossel, Ryan O'Donnell, Krzysztof Oleszkiewicz

In this paper we study functions with low influences on product probability spaces. The analysis of boolean functions with low influences has become a central problem in discrete F…
