Adversary lower bounds for nonadaptive quantum algorithms
We present two general methods for proving lower bounds on the query complexity of nonadaptive quantum algorithms. Both methods are based on the adversary method of Ambainis. We sh...

On the complexity of deciding connectedness and computing Betti numbers of a complex algebraic variety
We extend the lower bounds on the complexity of computing Betti numbers proved in [6] to complex algebraic varieties. More precisely, we first prove that the problem of deciding ...

Quantum and Randomized Lower Bounds for Local Search on Vertex-Transitive Graphs
We study the problem of local search on a graph. Given a real-valued black-box function f on the graph's vertices, this is the problem of determining a local minimum of f--a v...

Lower Bounds for Non-Black-Box Zero Knowledge
We show new lower bounds and impossibility results for general (possibly non-black-box) zero-knowledge proofs and arguments. Our main results are that, under reasonable complexity...

Complexity Bounds for Batch Active Learning in Classification
Active learning [1] is a branch of Machine Learning in which the learning algorithm, instead of being directly provided with pairs of problem instances and their solutions (their l...
