27 June 2022 - Tom Gur Speaker Tom Gur Title Quantum delegation of computation in sublinear-time Abstract Suppose we have a quantum computer which is capable of solving problems that are intractable for a classical computer, it is natural to ask whether a classical computer can delegate the computation to the quantum machine and efficiently verify its solution. We will discuss the notion of quantum proofs of proximity, which are protocols that allow a quantum prover to convince a classical verifier of the correctness of the computation in sublinear-time. We will see a concrete example of how to construct such protocols, as well as discuss a paradigm that admits such protocols for large classes of natural problems. The talk is meant for a broad audience, and will not assume quantum/crypto preliminaries.
