AI 中文摘要
在寻找具有超多项式加速的进一步量子算法的探索中,一个反复出现的主题是:问题的复杂度在很大程度上由输入访问模型决定。在此,我们针对态隐藏子群问题(StateHSP)研究这一现象,该问题是隐藏子群问题的量子推广,其目标是识别未知量子态的对称性。对于有限阿贝尔群,现有的傅里叶采样算法使用 $O(\log(|G|)/\epsilon)$ 份态副本,但这一规模是否最优一直悬而未决。我们在先前研究的样本模型和一种新的查询模型中解决了阿贝尔StateHSP的复杂度问题,后者是一种更强且操作上自然的推广,提供对态制备酉算子及其逆的访问。在查询模型中,我们给出一个时间高效的量子算法,使用 $O(\log(|G/H|)/\sqrt{\epsilon})$ 次正向和逆向查询,并证明匹配的 $\Omega(\log(|G/H|)/\sqrt{\epsilon})$ 下界,该下界即使在更强的共轭查询和受控查询设置中也成立。相比之下,我们表明在样本模型中,$\Theta(\log(|G/H|)/\epsilon)$ 份副本既是充分的,也是信息论上必要的,即使允许任意集体测量也是如此。因此,在 $\epsilon$ 上的二次改进确实源于对制备电路的相干访问。作为应用,我们获得了学习稳定子群、定位非纠缠态和识别隐藏平移对称性的更快算法。
英文摘要
In the quest to identify further quantum algorithms exhibiting superpolynomial speed-ups, a recurring theme is that the complexity of a problem is largely shaped by the input access model. Here, we study this phenomenon for the state hidden subgroup problem (StateHSP), a quantum generalization of the hidden subgroup problem in which the goal is to identify the symmetries of an unknown quantum state. For finite abelian groups, existing Fourier-sampling algorithms use $O(\log(|G|)/ε)$ copies of the state, but whether this scaling is optimal has remained open. We settle the complexity of the abelian StateHSP in both the previously studied sample model and a new query model, which is a stronger and operationally natural generalization that provides access to the state-preparation unitary and its inverse. In the query model, we give a time-efficient quantum algorithm using $O(\log(|G/H|)/\sqrtε)$ forward and inverse queries, and prove a matching $Ω(\log(|G/H|)/\sqrtε)$ lower bound which holds even in the stronger conjugate-query and controlled-query settings. By contrast, we show that in the sample model, $Θ(\log(|G/H|)/ε)$ copies are both sufficient and information-theoretically necessary, even if one allows for arbitrary collective measurements. Thus, the quadratic improvement in $ε$ genuinely arises from coherent access to the preparation circuit. As applications, we obtain faster algorithms for learning stabilizer groups, locating unentanglement, and identifying hidden translation symmetries.
