Abstract: This paper studies the gap between quantum one-way communication complexity Q(f) and its classical counterpart C(f), under the {em unbounded-error} setting, i.e., it is enough that the success probability is strictly greater than 1/2. It is proved that for {em any} (total or partial) Boolean function f, Q(f)=lceilC(f)/2ceil, i.e., the former is always exactly one half as large as the latter. The result has an application to obtaining (again an exact) bound for the existence of (m,n,p)-QRAC which is the n-qubit random access coding that can recover any one of m original bits with success probability geqp. We can prove that (m,n,>1/2)-QRAC exists if and only if mleq22n1. Previously, only the construction of QRAC using one qubit, the existence of (O(n),n,>1/2)-RAC, and the non-existence of (22n,n,>1/2)-QRAC were known.
