Efficient quantum protocols for XOR functions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We show that for any Boolean function f on {0,1}^n, the bounded-error quantum communication complexity of XOR functions fcircoplus satisfies that Qepsilon(fcircoplus)=O(2d(log|hatf|1,epsilon+logfracnepsilon)log(1/epsilon)), where d is the F2-degree of f, and |hatf|1,epsilon=ming:|f−g|inftyleqepsilon|hatf|1. This implies that the previous lower bound Qepsilon(fcircoplus)=Omega(log|hatf|1,epsilon) by Lee and Shraibman cite{LS09} is tight for f with low F2-degree. The result also confirms the quantum version of the Log-rank Conjecture for low-degree XOR functions. In addition, we show that the exact quantum communication complexity satisfies QE(f)=O(2dlog|hatf|0), where |hatf|0 is the number of nonzero Fourier coefficients of f. This matches the previous lower bound QE(f(x,y))=Omega(logrank(Mf)) by Buhrman and de Wolf cite{BdW01} for low-degree XOR functions.
