盲委托量子计算的复杂性理论限制

Complexity-theoretic limitations on blind delegated quantum computation

Scott Aaronson, Alexandru Cojocaru, Alexandru Gheorghiu, Elham Kashefi

摘要:

盲委托协议允许客户端将计算委托给服务器,以便服务器除了其大小之外对计算的输入一无所知。对于量子计算的特定情况,我们知道盲委托协议可以实现信息论安全。在本文中,我们证明,提供一定的复杂性理论的假设是真的,量子计算的信息理论安全的盲委托协议(ITS-BQC协议)的权力是在一些方面的限制。在我们的论文的第一部分中,我们提供了一些迹象表明,ITS-BQC协议委托$\sf BQP$计算,其中客户端和服务器只进行经典的交互是不可能存在的。我们首先表明,有这样一个协议与$O(n^d)$位的经典通信意味着$\mathsf{BQP} \subset \mathsf{MA/O(n^d)}$。我们推测,这种包容是不可能的,通过提供一个相对于$\mathsf{BQP} \not\subset \mathsf{MA/O(n^d)}$的预言。然后,我们表明,如果一个ITS-BQC协议存在多项式经典通信,并允许客户端委托量子采样问题,那么存在大小为$2^{n - \mathsfΩ(n/log(n))}$的非均匀电路,使多项式大小的查询$\sf NP^{NP}$ oracle,用于计算永久的$n \times n$矩阵。本文的第二部分是ITS-BQC协议,其中客户端和服务器进行一轮量子通信,然后交换多项式的许多经典消息。首先,我们提供了一个复杂性理论的上限类型的功能,可以委托在这样的协议,即$\mathsf{QCMA/qpoly \cap coQCMA/qpoly}$。然后,我们表明,有这样一个协议委托$\mathsf{NP}$硬功能意味着$\mathsf{coNP^{NP^{NP}}} \subseteq \mathsf{NP^{NP^{PromiseQMA}}}$。

英文摘要:

Blind delegation protocols allow a client to delegate a computation to a server so that the server learns nothing about the input to the computation apart from its size. For the specific case of quantum computation we know that blind delegation protocols can achieve information-theoretic security. In this paper we prove, provided certain complexity-theoretic conjectures are true, that the power of information-theoretically secure blind delegation protocols for quantum computation (ITS-BQC protocols) is in a number of ways constrained. In the first part of our paper we provide some indication that ITS-BQC protocols for delegating $\sf BQP$ computations in which the client and the server interact only classically are unlikely to exist. We first show that having such a protocol with $O(n^d)$ bits of classical communication implies that $\mathsf{BQP} \subset \mathsf{MA/O(n^d)}$. We conjecture that this containment is unlikely by providing an oracle relative to which $\mathsf{BQP} \not\subset \mathsf{MA/O(n^d)}$. We then show that if an ITS-BQC protocol exists with polynomial classical communication and which allows the client to delegate quantum sampling problems, then there exist non-uniform circuits of size $2^{n - \mathsfΩ(n/log(n))}$, making polynomially-sized queries to an $\sf NP^{NP}$ oracle, for computing the permanent of an $n \times n$ matrix. The second part of our paper concerns ITS-BQC protocols in which the client and the server engage in one round of quantum communication and then exchange polynomially many classical messages. First, we provide a complexity-theoretic upper bound on the types of functions that could be delegated in such a protocol, namely $\mathsf{QCMA/qpoly \cap coQCMA/qpoly}$. Then, we show that having such a protocol for delegating $\mathsf{NP}$-hard functions implies $\mathsf{coNP^{NP^{NP}}} \subseteq \mathsf{NP^{NP^{PromiseQMA}}}$.
