Non-local computation of quantum circuits with small light cones (2022)

arxiv.orgsite

Provides a general attack on QPV based on the geometric structure of a circuit decomposition of the task unitary. Is more efficient for certain classes of unitaries than previous general attacks.

  1. Instantaneous non-local computation of low T-depth quantum circuits (2016) doi.org

    Provides a general attack on QPV using an exponential amount of pre-shared EPR pairs in the number of T-gates or T-depth based on the circuit decomposition of the task unitary into Clifford+T gates.

  2. Simplified instantaneous non-local quantum computation with applications to position-based cryptography (2011) doi.org

    Provides a general attack on QPV based on port-based teleportation, using an exponential amount of pre-shared EPR pairs in the number of input qubits. Also provides a QPV protocol with a provably linear lower bound.

  3. A complexity theory for non-local quantum computation (2025) arxiv.org

    Finds relations between a wide range of different NLQC tasks, including showing that $f$-routing and $f$-BB84 are equivalent, with a constant-overhead reduction between them.

  4. Complexity and entanglement in non-local computation and holography (2022) doi.org

    Notes that the necessary attack resource requirements are controlled by the entangled part of the task unitary. Shows that for tasks where one side is classical input information, a doubly-logarithmic (later improved to logarithmic) lower bound and exponential upper bound (in…

  5. Holography as a resource for non-local quantum computation (2022) arxiv.org

    Discusses and fills a loophole in the paper one above. Costructs an attacked based on simulating a holographic CFT and argues that, based on some assumptions, any polynomially complex unitary can be efficiently attacked.

  6. Quantum tasks in holography (2019) doi.org

    Connects QPV to the AdS/CFT conjecture by noting that a QPV protocol in the bulk must have an equivalent protocol in the boundary. The boundary implementation turns out to be a valid attack on the bulk QPV protocol, implementing it non-locally.
