Such boxes have been central to the study of quantum or generalized non-locality, aswell as the simulation of non-signaling distributions. In this paper, we start by studyinghow many non-local boxes Alice and Bob need in order to compute a Boolean functionf. We provide tight upper and lower bounds in terms of the communication complexityof the function both in the deterministic and randomized case. We show that non-localbox complexity has interesting applications to classical cryptography, in particular tosecure function evaluation, and study the question posed by Beimel and Malkin [1] ofhow many Oblivious Transfer calls Alice and Bob need in order to securely compute afunction f. We show that this question is related to the non-local box complexity of thefunction and conclude by greatly improving their bounds. Finally, another consequenceof our results is that traceless two-outcome measurements on maximally entangled statescan be simulated with 3 non-local boxes, while no finite bound was previously known.","PeriodicalId":54524,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Information & Computation","volume":"129 17 1","pages":"239-250"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2009-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85039296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given a real-valued black-box functionf on the graph's vertices, this is the problem of determining a local minimum of f--a vertex v for which f(v) is no more than f evaluated at any of v's neighbors. In1983, Aldous gave the first strong lower bounds for the problem, showing that anyrandomized algorithm requires Ω(2n/2-o(n)) queries to determine a local minimum onthe n-dimensional hypercube. The next major step forward was not until 2004 whenAaronson, introducing a new method for query complexity bounds, both strengthened thislower bound to Ω(2n/2/n2) and gave an analogous lower bound on the quantum querycomplexity. While these bounds are very strong, they are known only for narrow familiesof graphs (hypercubes and grids). We show how to generalize Aaronson's techniques inorder to give randomized (and quantum) lower bounds on the query complexity of localsearch for the family of vertex-transitive graphs. In particular, we show that for anyvertex-transitive graph G of N vertices and diameter d, the randomized and quantumquery complexities for local search on G are Ω (√N/dlogN) and (4√N / √dlogN),respectively.","PeriodicalId":54524,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Information & Computation","volume":"33 1","pages":"385-401"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88695068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Weconsider circuits consisting of unitary k-qubit gates each of whose input wires is subject todepolarizing noise of strength p, as well as arbitrary one-qubit gates that are essentiallynoise-free. We assume that the output of the circuit is the result of measuring somedesignated qubit in the final state. Our main result is that for p > 1 - Θ(1/√k), theoutput of any such circuit of large enough depth is essentially independent of its input,thereby making the circuit useless. For the important special case of k = 2, our bound isp > 35.7%. Moreover, if the only allowed gate on more than one qubit is the two-qubitCNOT gate, then our bound becomes 29.3%. These bounds on p are numerically betterthan previous bounds, yet are incomparable because of the somewhat different circuitmodel that we are using. Our main technique is the use of a Pauli basis decomposition,in which the effects of depolarizing noise are very easy to describe.","PeriodicalId":54524,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Information & Computation","volume":"45 1","pages":"845-856"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2008-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76057405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
