We study quantum algorithms for testing bipartiteness and expansion of bounded-degree graphs. We give quantum algorithms that solve these problems in time O(N^(1/3)), beating the Omega(sqrt(N)) classical lower bound. For testing expansion, we also prove an Omega(N^(1/4)) quantum query lower bound, thus ruling out the possibility of an exponential quantum speedup. Our quantum algorithms follow from a combination of classical property testing techniques due to Goldreich and Ron, derandomization, and the quantum algorithm for element distinctness. The quantum lower bound is obtained by the polynomial method, using novel algebraic techniques and combinatorial analysis to accommodate the graph structure.

We consider the task of approximating the ground state energy of two-local quantum Hamiltonians on bounded-degree graphs. Most existing algorithms optimize the energy over the set of product states. Here we describe a family of shallow quantum circui ts that can be used to improve the approximation ratio achieved by a given product state. The algorithm takes as input an $n$-qubit product state $|vrangle$ with mean energy $e_0=langle v|H|vrangle$ and variance $mathrm{Var}=langle v|(H-e_0)^2|vrangle$, and outputs a state with an energy that is lower than $e_0$ by an amount proportional to $mathrm{Var}^2/n$. In a typical case, we have $mathrm{Var}=Omega(n)$ and the energy improvement is proportional to the number of edges in the graph. When applied to an initial random product state, we recover and generalize the performance guarantees of known algorithms for bounded-occurrence classical constraint satisfaction problems. We extend our results to $k$-local Hamiltonians and entangled initial states.
A language L has a property tester if there exists a probabilistic algorithm that given an input x only asks a small number of bits of x and distinguishes the cases as to whether x is in L and x has large Hamming distance from all y in L. We define a similar notion of quantum property testing and show that there exist languages with quantum property testers but no good classical testers. We also show there exist languages which require a large number of queries even for quantumly testing.

We determine the computational complexity of approximately counting and sampling independent sets of a given size in bounded-degree graphs. That is, we identify a critical density $alpha_c(Delta)$ and provide (i) for $alpha < alpha_c(Delta)$ randomiz ed polynomial-time algorithms for approximately sampling and counting independent sets of given size at most $alpha n$ in $n$-vertex graphs of maximum degree $Delta$; and (ii) a proof that unless NP=RP, no such algorithms exist for $alpha>alpha_c(Delta)$. The critical density is the occupancy fraction of hard core model on the clique $K_{Delta+1}$ at the uniqueness threshold on the infinite $Delta$-regular tree, giving $alpha_c(Delta)simfrac{e}{1+e}frac{1}{Delta}$ as $Deltatoinfty$.

We combine the classical notions and techniques for bounded query classes with those developed in quantum computing. We give strong evidence that quantum queries to an oracle in the class NP does indeed reduce the query complexity of decision problem s. Under traditional complexity assumptions, we obtain an exponential speedup between the quantum and the classical query complexity of function classes. For decision problems and function classes we obtain the following results: o P_||^NP[2k] is included in EQP_||^NP[k] o P_||^NP[2^(k+1)-2] is included in EQP^NP[k] o FP_||^NP[2^(k+1)-2] is included in FEQP^NP[2k] o FP_||^NP is included in FEQP^NP[O(log n)] For sets A that are many-one complete for PSPACE or EXP we show that FP^A is included in FEQP^A[1]. Sets A that are many-one complete for PP have the property that FP_||^A is included in FEQP^A[1]. In general we prove that for any set A there is a set X such that FP^A is included in FEQP^X[1], establishing that no set is superterse in the quantum setting.
Based on the recent breakthrough of Huang (2019), we show that for any total Boolean function $f$, $bullet quad mathrm{deg}(f) = O(widetilde{mathrm{deg}}(f)^2)$: The degree of $f$ is at most quadratic in the approximate degree of $f$. This is optim al as witnessed by the OR function. $bullet quad mathrm{D}(f) = O(mathrm{Q}(f)^4)$: The deterministic query complexity of $f$ is at most quartic in the quantum query complexity of $f$. This matches the known separation (up to log factors) due to Ambainis, Balodis, Belovs, Lee, Santha, and Smotrovs (2017). We apply these results to resolve the quantum analogue of the Aanderaa--Karp--Rosenberg conjecture. We show that if $f$ is a nontrivial monotone graph property of an $n$-vertex graph specified by its adjacency matrix, then $mathrm{Q}(f)=Omega(n)$, which is also optimal. We also show that the approximate degree of any read-once formula on $n$ variables is $Theta(sqrt{n})$.
