A Lower Bound on Entanglement-Assisted Quantum Communication Complexity

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We prove a general lower bound on the bounded-error entanglement-assisted quantum communication complexity of Boolean functions. The bound is based on the concept that any classical or quantum protocol to evaluate a function on distributed inputs can be turned into a quantum communication protocol. As an application of this bound, we give a very simple proof of the statement that almost all Boolean functions on n+n bits have linear communication complexity, even in the presence of unlimited entanglement.
