• Abstract: We propose a quantum expected value theory for decision-making under uncertainty. Quantum density operator as value operator is proposed to simulate people's subjective beliefs. Value operator guides people to choose corresponding actions based on their subjective beliefs through objective world. The value operator can be constructed from quantum gates and logic operations as a quantum decision tree. The genetic programming is used to optimize and auto-generate quantum decision trees.

• Approximation of the Nearest Classical-Classical State to a Quantum State [0.0]
  A revolutionary step in computation is driven by quantumness or quantum correlations, which are permanent in entanglements but often in separable states. The exact quantification of quantumness is an NP-hard problem; thus, we consider alternative approaches to approximate it. We show that the objective value decreases along the flow by proofs and numerical results.

We show that it is in general impossible to realize a two-party quantum functionality with black-box simulation in the case of malicious quantum adversaries. We provide a compiler that takes as input a classical proof of quantum knowledge (PoQK) protocol for a QMA relation R and outputs a zero-knowledge PoQK for R that can be verified by classical parties.
