Understanding the Quantum Computational Speed-up via De-quantisation
While it seems possible that quantum computers may allow for algorithms offering a computational speed-up over classical algorithms for some problems, the issue is poorly understood. We explore this computational speed-up by investigating the ability to de-quantise quantum algorithms into classical simulations of the algorithms which are as efficient in both time and space as the original quant...
متن کاملSpeed-up via Quantum Sampling
The Markov Chain Monte Carlo method is at the heart of most fully-polynomial randomized approximation schemes for #P-complete problems such as estimating the permanent or the value of a polytope. It is therefore very natural and important to determine whether quantum computers can speed-up classical mixing processes based on Markov chains. To this end, we present a new quantum algorithm, making...
متن کاملDe-quantisation in Quantum Computation
Quantum computation has shown much promise at providing, at least in some cases, a significant advantage over classical computation. However, the nature of quantum computation is still far from being well understood. In order to develop quantum algorithms effectively, it is important to understand the true nature of the differences between classical and quantum computation. We investigate these...
متن کاملOn the role of entanglement in quantum computational speed-up
For any quantum algorithm operating on pure states we prove that the presence of multi-partite entanglement, with a number of parties that increases unboundedly with input size, is necessary if the quantum algorithm is to offer an exponential speed-up over classical computation. Furthermore we prove that the algorithm can be classically efficiently simulated to within a prescribed tolerance η e...
متن کاملDiscrete Wigner functions and quantum computational speed-up
In quant-ph/0401155 Wootters and colaborators defined a class of discrete Wigner functions W to represent quantum states in a finite Hilbert space dimension d. I characterize a set Cd of states having non-negative W simultaneously in all definitions of W in this class. For d ≤ 5 I show Cd is the convex hull of stabilizer states. This supports the conjecture that negativity of W is necessary for...
