On the Theory of Matchgate Computations
Valiant has proposed a new theory of algorithmic computation based on perfect matchings and Pfaffians. We study the properties of matchgates—the basic building blocks in this n...

On Block-Wise Symmetric Signatures for Matchgates
We give a classification of block-wise symmetric signatures in the theory of matchgate computations. The main proof technique is matchgate identities, a.k.a. useful Grassmann-Pl¨...
