Clifford testing: algorithms and lower bounds
Marcel Hinsche, Zongbo Bao, Philippe van Dordrecht +3
We consider the problem of Clifford testing, which asks whether a black-box -qubit unitary is a Clifford unitary or at least -far from every Clifford unitary. We gi…

Tolerant testing of stabilizer states with a polynomial gap via a generalized uncertainty relation
Zongbo Bao, Philippe van Dordrecht, Jonas Helsen
We prove a conjecture of Arunachalam & Dutt ([AD24]) on the existence of a tolerant stabilizer testing algorithm, and achieve an exponential improvement in the parameters of the te…
