The Complexity of NISQ

AbstractThe recent proliferation of NISQ devices has made it imperative to understand their computational power. In this work, we define and study the complexity class $ extsf{NISQ} $, which is intended to encapsulate problems that can be efficiently solved by a classical computer with access to a NISQ device. To model existing devices, we assume the device can (1) noisily initialize all qubits, (2) apply many noisy quantum gates, and (3) perform a noisy measurement on all qubits. We first give evidence that $ extsf{BPP}subsetneq extsf{NISQ}subsetneq extsf{BQP}$, by demonstrating super-polynomial oracle separations among the three classes, based on modifications of Simon’s problem. We then consider the power of $ extsf{NISQ}$ for three well-studied problems. For unstructured search, we prove that $ extsf{NISQ}$ cannot achieve a Grover-like quadratic speedup over $ extsf{BPP}$. For the Bernstein-Vazirani problem, we show that $ extsf{NISQ}$ only needs a number of queries logarithmic in what is required for $ extsf{BPP}$. Finally, for a quantum state learning problem, we prove that $ extsf{NISQ}$ is exponentially weaker than classical computation with access to noiseless constant-depth quantum circuits.
