Polynomial Degree vs. Quantum Query Complexity
The degree of a polynomial representing (or approximating) a function f is a lower bound for the quantum query complexity of f. This observation has been a source of many lower bo...

Quantum Lower Bounds by Polynomials
We examine the number T of queries that a quantum network requires to compute several Boolean functions on f0;1gN in the black-box model. We show that, in the blackbox model, the ...

Communication Complexity Lower Bounds by Polynomials
The quantum version of communication complexity allows the two communicating parties to exchange qubits and/or to make use of prior entanglement (shared EPRpairs). Some lower boun...

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 on Quantum Multiparty Communication Complexity
A major open question in communication complexity is if randomized and quantum communication are polynomially related for all total functions. So far, no gap larger than a power o...
