SUMMARY:Quantum Worst-Case to Average-Case Reductions for All Linear Proble
 ms
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:MATH/CS SEMINAR - VAHID ASADI FROM IQC\n\nIn this talk\, we stu
 dy the problem of designing worst-case to\naverage-case reductions for qua
 ntum algorithms. For all linear\nproblems\, we provide an explicit and eff
 icient transformation of\nquantum algorithms that are only correct on a sm
 all (even\nsub-constant) fraction of their inputs into ones that are corre
 ct on\nall inputs. This stands in contrast to the classical setting\, wher
 e\nsuch results are only known for a small number of specific problems or\
 nrestricted computational models. En route\, we obtain a tight Ω(n^2)\nlo
 wer bound on the average-case quantum query complexity of the\nMatrix-Vect
 or Multiplication problem...
