Limits on the ability of quantum states to convey classical messages
We revisit the problem of conveying classical messages by transmitting quantum states, and derive new, optimal bounds on the number of quantum bits required for this task. Much of...

A New Quantum Lower Bound Method, with an Application to a Strong Direct Product Theorem for Quantum Search
Abstract: We present a new method for proving lower bounds on quantum query algorithms. The new method is an extension of the adversary method, by analyzing the eigenspace structur...

Lower Bounds for Quantum Search and Derandomization
We prove lower bounds on the error probability of a quantum algorithm for searching through an unordered list of N items, as a function of the number T of queries it makes. In par...

Quantum Search of Spatial Regions
: Can Grover’s algorithm speed up search of a physical region—for example a 2-D grid of size √ n × √ n? The problem is that √ n time seems to be needed for each query, j...

Improved Lower Bounds for Locally Decodable Codes and Private Information Retrieval
We prove new lower bounds for locally decodable codes and private information retrieval. We show that a 2-query LDC encoding nbit strings over an ℓ-bit alphabet, where the decode...
