Advice Coins for Classical and Quantum Computation
We study the power of classical and quantum algorithms equipped with nonuniform advice, in the form of a coin whose bias encodes useful information. This question takes on particu...

Closed Timelike Curves Make Quantum and Classical Computing Equivalent
While closed timelike curves (CTCs) are not known to exist, studying their consequences has led to nontrivial insights in general relativity, quantum information, and other areas....

Revisiting a limit on efficient quantum computation
In this paper, we offer an exposition of a theorem originally due to Adleman, Demarrais and Huang that shows that the quantum complexity class BQP (Bounded-error Quantum Polynomia...

Exact Quantum Algorithms for the Leader Election Problem
Abstract. It is well-known that no classical algorithm can solve exactly (i.e., in bounded time without error) the leader election problem in anonymous networks. This paper propose...

Quantum versus Classical Learnability
Motivated by recent work on quantum black-box query complexity, we consider quantum versions of two wellstudied models of learning Boolean functions: Angluin’s model of exact le...
