چکیده

We present several applications of quantum amplitude amplification to finding claws and collisions in ordered or unordered functions. Our algorithms generalize those of Brassard, Høyer, and Tapp, and imply an O(N3=4 logN) quantum upper bound for the element distinctness problem in the comparison complexity model. This contrasts with (N logN) classical complexity. We also prove a lower bound of (pN) comparisons for this problem and derive bounds for a number of related problems.

0 Quantum Algorithms for Finding Claws , Collisions and Triangles ∗

We present several applications of quantum amplitude amplification to finding claws and collisions in ordered or unordered functions. Our algorithms generalize those of Brassard, Høyer, and Tapp, and imply an N3/4 logN quantum upper bound for the element distinctness problem (contrasting with N logN classical complexity). We also give an algorithm to finding a triangle in a graph more efficient...

Quantum Adversary Lower Bound for Element Distinctness with Small Range

The ELEMENT DISTINCTNESS problem is to decide whether each character of an input string is unique. The quantum query complexity of ELEMENT DISTINCTNESS is known to be Θ(N2/3); the polynomial method gives a tight lower bound for any input alphabet, while a tight adversary construction was only known for alphabets of size Ω(N2). We construct a tight Ω(N2/3) adversary lower bound for ELEMENT DISTI...

Quantum Property Testing for Bounded-Degree Graphs

We study quantum algorithms for testing bipartiteness and expansion of bounded-degreegraphs. We give quantum algorithms that solve these problems in time Õ(N), beating theΩ(√N) classical lower bound. For testing expansion, we also prove an Ω̃(N) quantum querylower bound, thus ruling out the possibility of an exponential quantum speedup. Our quantumalgorithms follow fr...

Quantum algorithms for testing bipartiteness and expansion of bounded-degree graphs (preliminary version)

We study quantum algorithms for testing properties of sparse graphs. Let G be a boundeddegree graph on N vertices. Given an oracle that answers queries of the form “what is the ith neighbor of vertex v?”, the problem is to distinguish whether G is bipartite or far from bipartite. A result of Goldreich and Ron shows that the classical query complexity of this task is Ω( √ N). We present a quantu...

The Need for Structure in Quantum Speedups

Is there a general theorem that tells us when we can hope for exponential speedups from quantum algorithms, and when we cannot? In this paper, we make two advances toward such a theorem, in the black-box model where most quantum algorithms operate. First, we show that for any problem that is invariant under permuting inputs and outputs (like the collision or the element distinctness problems), ...
