In the last few days, a Denial of Service attack was launched on universities in Israel, leading the administrators of the Israel Academic network to block access to it from the global internet. Consequently, websites such as ECCC have been accessible only from within the Israeli and European academic networks.
It seems that this blocking was just removed, and we hope it will not be put back in the future.
Needless to say, deciding on such blocking is not in our control, but we do apologize for this disruption of service.
We investigate two resources whose effects on quantum interactive proofs remain poorly understood: the promise of unentanglement, and the verifier’s ability to condition on an intermediate measurement, which we call post-measurement branching. We first show that unentanglement can dramatically increase computational power: three-round unentangled quantum interactive proofs equal NEXP, even ... more >>>
We present a new primitive for quantum algorithms that implements a discrete Hermite transform efficiently, in time that depends logarithmically in both the dimension and the inverse of the allowable error. This transform, which maps basis states to states whose amplitudes are proportional to the Hermite functions, can be interpreted ... more >>>
Linear decision lists are a computational model for Boolean functions built from a sequence of linear threshold function queries. Each query is evaluated in order: if a query returns true, the list outputs the value of the function, and if the answer is false, the process continues to the next ... more >>>
