Fast quantum algorithms for trace distance estimation

Q Wang, Z Zhang - IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In quantum information, trace distance is a basic metric of distinguishability between
quantum states. However, there is no known efficient approach to estimate the value of trace …

Directed st-connectivity with few paths is in quantum logspace

R Edenhofer, S Apers - arXiv preprint arXiv:2408.12473, 2024 - arxiv.org
We present a $\mathsf {BQSPACE}(O (\log n)) $-procedure to count $ st $-paths on directed
graphs for which we are promised that there are at most polynomially many paths starting in …
