More is Less:Optimal Security for Haar Quantum Money and More

Zihan Hao, Xingjian Li, Qipeng Liu +1

Quantum cryptography leverages unclonability to enable a wide range of cryptographic applications that are impossible classically, such as digital currency protected against counte…

Quantum Logspace Computations are Verifiable

Uma Girish, Ran Raz, Wei Zhan

In this note, we observe that quantum logspace computations are verifiable by classical logspace algorithms, with unconditional security. More precisely, every language in BQL has…

Randomized vs. Deterministic Separation in Time-Space Tradeoffs of Multi-Output Functions

Huacheng Yu, Wei Zhan

We prove the first polynomial separation between randomized and deterministic time-space tradeoffs of multi-output functions. In particular, we present a total function that on the…

Certified Hardness vs. Randomness for Log-Space

Edward Pyne, Ran Raz, Wei Zhan

Let be a language that can be decided in linear space and let be any constant. Let be the exponential hardness assumption that for every , memb…

Memory-Sample Lower Bounds for Learning with Classical-Quantum Hybrid Memory

Qipeng Liu, Ran Raz, Wei Zhan

In a work by Raz (J. ACM and FOCS 16), it was proved that any algorithm for parity learning on bits requires either bits of classical memory or an exponential number (…

Polynomial Bounds On Parallel Repetition For All 3-Player Games With Binary Inputs

Uma Girish, Kunal Mittal, Ran Raz +1

We prove that for every 3-player (3-prover) game with value less than one, whose query distribution has the support of ham…

Parallel Repetition For All 3-Player Games Over Binary Alphabet

Uma Girish, Justin Holmgren, Kunal Mittal +2

We prove that for every 3-player game with binary questions and answers and value , the value of the -fold parallel repetition of the game decays polynomially fast to 0. Tha…

Parallel Repetition for the GHZ Game: A Simpler Proof

Uma Girish, Justin Holmgren, Kunal Mittal +2

We give a new proof of the fact that the parallel repetition of the (3-player) GHZ game reduces the value of the game to zero polynomially quickly. That is, we show that the value…

Lower Bounds for XOR of Forrelations

Uma Girish, Ran Raz, Wei Zhan

The Forrelation problem, introduced by Aaronson [A10] and Aaronson and Ambainis [AA15], is a well studied problem in the context of separating quantum and classical models. Variant…

Quantum Logspace Algorithm for Powering Matrices with Bounded Norm

Uma Girish, Ran Raz, Wei Zhan

We give a quantum logspace algorithm for powering contraction matrices, that is, matrices with spectral norm at most~1. The algorithm gets as an input an arbitrary cont…

Odd Yao-Yao Graphs are Not Spanners

Yifei Jin, Jian Li, Wei Zhan

It is a long standing open problem whether Yao-Yao graphs are all spanners [li2002sparse]. Bauer and Damian [bauer2013infinite] showed that all …

Exponential Separations in the Energy Complexity of Leader Election

Yi-Jun Chang, Tsvi Kopelowitz, Seth Pettie +2

Energy is often the most constrained resource for battery-powered wireless devices and the lion's share of energy is often spent on transceiver usage (sending/receiving packets), n…

Almost All Even Yao-Yao Graphs Are Spanners

Jian Li, Wei Zhan

It is an open problem whether Yao-Yao graphs (also known as sparse-Yao graphs) are all spanners when the integer parameter is large enough. In this paper we sho…
