(Almost) tight bounds for randomized and quantum Local Search on hypercubes and grids
Shengyu Zhang ;
Date 12 Apr 2005
Subject quant-ph
AbstractThe Local Search problem, which finds a local minimum of a black-box function on a given graph, is of both practical and theoretical importance to many areas in computer science and natural sciences. In this paper, we show that for the Boolean hypercube $B^n$, the randomized query complexity of Local Search is $Theta(2^{n/2}n^{1/2})$ and the quantum query complexity is $Theta(2^{n/3}n^{1/6})$. We also show that for the constant dimensional grid $[N^{1/d}]^d$, the randomized query complexity is $Theta(N^{1/2})$ for $d geq 4$ and the quantum query complexity is $Theta(N^{1/3})$ for $d geq 6$. New lower bounds for lower dimensional grids are also given. These improve the previous results by Aaronson [STOC’04], and Santha and Szegedy [STOC’04]. Finally we show for $[N^{1/2}]^2$ a new upper bound of $O(N^{1/4}(loglog N)^{3/2})$ on the quantum query complexity, which implies that Local Search on grids exhibits different properties at low dimensions.
