Abstract: For any ngeq3 and qgeq3, we prove that the {sc Equality} function (=n) on n variables over a domain of size q cannot be realized by matchgates under holographic transformations. This is a consequence of our theorem on the structure of blockwise symmetric matchgate signatures. %due to the rank of the matrix form of the blockwise symmetric standard signatures, %where (=n) is an equality signature on domain 0,1,cdots,q1. This has the implication that the standard holographic algorithms based on matchgates, a methodology known to be universal for #CSP over the Boolean domain, cannot produce P-time algorithms for planar #CSP over any higher domain qgeq3.
