Measuring 4-local n-qubit observables could probabilistically solve PSPACE

Pawel Wocjan, Dominik Janzing, Thomas Decker +1

We consider a hypothetical apparatus that implements measurements for arbitrary 4-local quantum observables A on n qubits. The apparatus implements the ``measurement algorithm'' af…

Two QCMA-complete problems

Pawel Wocjan, Dominik Janzing, Thomas Beth

QMA and QCMA are possible quantum analogues of the complexity class NP. In QCMA the verifier is a quantum program and the proof is classical. In contrast, in QMA the proof is also…

Identity check is QMA-complete

Dominik Janzing, Pawel Wocjan, Thomas Beth

We define the problem identity check: Given a classical description of a quantum circuit, determine whether it is almost equivalent to the identity. Explicitly, the task is to deci…

Cooling and Low Energy State Preparation for 3-local Hamiltonians are FQMA-complete

Dominik Janzing, Pawel Wocjan, Thomas Beth

We introduce the quantum complexity class FQMA. This class describes the complexity of generating a quantum state that serves as a witness for a given QMA problem. In a certain sen…

Treating the Independent Set Problem by 2D Ising Interactions with Adiabatic Quantum Computing

Pawel Wocjan, Dominik Janzing, Thomas Beth

We construct a nearest-neighbor Hamiltonian whose ground states encode the solutions to the NP-complete problem INDEPENDENT SET in cubic planar graphs. The Hamiltonian can be easil…

The 2-local Hamiltonian problem encompasses NP

Pawel Wocjan, Thomas Beth

We show that the NP complete problems MAX CUT and INDEPENDENT SET can be formulated as the 2-local Hamiltonian problem as defined by Kitaev. He introduced the quantum complexity cl…
