In this problem, two players each receive $t$ samples from one distribution over $[n]$, and the goal is to decide whether their two distributions are equal, or are $epsilon$-far apart in the $l_1$-distance. In the present paper we show that the quantum communication complexity of this problem is $tilde{O}(n/(tepsilon^2))$ qubits when the distributions have low $l_2$-norm, which gives a quadratic improvement over the classical communication complexity obtained by Andoni, Malkin and Nosatzki. We also obtain a matching lower bound by using the pattern matrix method. Let us stress that the samples received by each of the parties are classical, and it is only communication between them that is quantum. Our results thus give one setting where quantum protocols overcome classical protocols for a testing problem with purely classical samples.","PeriodicalId":20904,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Inf.

Since the implementation of elementary functions is already possible on quantum computers, the scheme that we propose can be easily applied. Moreover, since some steps (such as the CNOT operator) can (or will be) faster on a quantum computer than on a classical one, our procedure may ultimately emonstrate that quantum algorithmic differentiation has an advantage relative to its classical counterpart.","PeriodicalId":20904,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Inf.

Here, we consider the quantum polar code construction using the same channel combining and splitting procedure as in [3] but with a fixed two-qubit Clifford unitary. For the family of Pauli channels, we show that the polarization happens although in multilevels, where synthesised quantum virtual channels tend to become completely noisy, half-noisy or noiseless. Further, it is shown that half-noisy channels can be frozen by fixing their inputs in either amplitude or phase basis, which reduces the number of preshared EPR pairs with respect to the construction in [3]. We also give an upper bound on the number of preshared EPR pairs, which is an equality in the case of quantum erasure channel. To improve the speed of polarization, we provide an alternative construction, which again polarizes in multilevel way and the earlier upper bound on preshared EPR pairs also holds. We confirm by numerical analysis for a quantum erasure channel that the multilevel polarization happens relatively faster for the alternative construction.","PeriodicalId":20904,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Inf.

As an alternative, we propose a scheme that achieves information-theoretically secure tamper evidence: The server is able to obtain information about the stored data, but not while staying undetected. Moreover, the client only needs to remember a key whose length is much shorter than the data. We provide a security proof for our scheme, based on an entropic uncertainty relation, similar to QKD proofs. Our scheme works if Alice is able to (reversibly) randomise the message to almost-uniformity with only a short key. By constructing an explicit attack we show that short-key unconditional tamper evidence cannot be achieved without this randomisability.","PeriodicalId":20904,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Inf.

Image processing: why quantum? 图像处理:为什么是量子?

The vast majority of these papers define or make use of quantum representations based on very large superposition states spanning as many terms as there are pixels in the image they try to represent. While such a representation may apparently offer an advantage in terms of space (number of qubits used) and speed of processing (due to quantum parallelism), it also harbors a fundamental flaw: only one pixel can be recovered from the quantum representation of the entire image, and even that one is obtained non-deterministically through a measurement operation applied on the superposition state. We investigate in detail this measurement bottleneck problem by looking at the number of copies of the quantum representation that are necessary in order to recover various fractions of the original image. The results clearly show that any potential advantage a quantum representation might bring with respect to a classical one is paid for dearly with the huge amount of resources (space and time) required by a quantum approach to image processing.","PeriodicalId":20904,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Inf.

We show that this is indeed possible. We introduce a prepare-and-measure QKR protocol where the communication from Alice to Bob consists entirely of qubits. As usual, Bob responds with an authenticated one-bit accept/reject classical message. Compared to Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), QKR has reduced round complexity. Compared to previous qubit-based QKR protocols, our scheme has far less classical communication. We provide a security proof in the universal composability framework and find that the communication rate is asymptotically the same as for QKD with one-way postprocessing.","PeriodicalId":20904,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Inf.

In order to map an 1-dimensional (1-D) quantum circuit into a 2-D grid structure and satisfy the nearest neighbor constraint of qubit interaction in the grid structure, a mapping method from 1-D quantum circuit to 2-D grid structure is proposed in this paper. This method firstly determines the order of placing qubits, and then presents the layout strategy of qubits in 2-D grid. We also proposed an algorithm for establishing interaction paths between non-adjacent qubits in 2-D grid structure, which can satisfy the physical constraints of the interaction of quantum bits in the grid in the process of mapping an 1-D quantum circuit to a 2-D grid structure. For some benchmark circuits, after using the method of this paper to place qubits, it is possible to make every 2-qubit gate in the circuit have a nearest neighbor, so that there is no need to use SWAP gate to establish channel routing. Compared with the latest available methods, the average optimization rate is 82.38%.","PeriodicalId":20904,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Inf.

Because the well-known algorithm for the quantum amplitude estimation using the phase estimation does not work in near-term quantum computers, alternative approaches have been proposed in recent literature. Some of them provide a proof of the upper bound which almost achieves the Heisenberg scaling. However, the constant factor is large and thus the bound is loose.
