Classical Verification of Quantum Computation Beyond the Polynomial Hierarchy
[quant-ph] Autorzy: Atul Mantri
It is not known whether a classical polynomial-time verifier can verify arbitrary polynomial-time quantum computations with an efficient quantum honest prover without computational assumptions. We show that, relative to a classical oracle, such verification is possible for a language beyond the polynomial hierarchy that is decided exactly in quantum polynomial time. The protocol is public-coin, with perfect completeness and soundness error at most 1/4. To our knowledge, no language with such a proof system was previously proved to lie outside AM relative to an oracle. For every unbounded polynomial-time computable function, the oracle can be chosen so that the message count and the oracle query counts of the quantum algorithm, verifier, and honest prover are bounded by this function of the input length. The message count is optimal up to a constant factor, since for a suitable oracle ev…
