• Abstract: Lloyd et al. were first to demonstrate the promise of quantum algorithms for computing Betti numbers, a way to characterize topological features of data sets. Here, we propose, analyze, and optimize an improved quantum algorithm for topological data analysis (TDA) with reduced scaling, including a method for preparing Dicke states based on inequality testing, a more efficient amplitude estimation algorithm using Kaiser windows, and an optimal implementation of eigenvalue projectors based on Chebyshev polynomials. We compile our approach to a fault-tolerant gate set and estimate constant factors in the Toffoli complexity. Our analysis reveals that super-quadratic quantum speedups are only possible for this problem when targeting a multiplicative error approximation and the Betti number grows asymptotically. Further, we propose a dequantization of the quantum TDA algorithm that shows that having exponentially large dimension and Betti number are necessary, but insufficient conditions, for super-polynomial advantage. We then introduce and analyze specific problem examples which have parameters in the regime where super-polynomial advantages may be achieved, and argue that quantum circuits with tens of billions of Toffoli gates can solve seemingly classically intractable instances.

  Given a quantum circuit containing d tunable RZ gates and G-d Clifford gates, can a learner perform purely classical inference to efficiently predict its linear properties? We prove that the sample complexity scaling linearly in d is necessary and sufficient to achieve a small prediction error, while the corresponding computational complexity may scale exponentially in d. We devise a kernel-based learning model capable of trading off prediction error and computational complexity, transitioning from exponential to scaling in many practical settings.

  We show that a quantization'' of the matrix multiplicative-weight algorithm can provide approximate solutions to SDPs quadratically faster than the best classical algorithms. We propose a modification of this quantum algorithm and show that a similar speedup can be obtained by replacing the Gibbs-state sampler with the preparation of thermal pure quantum (TPQ) states.

  Quantum algorithms for topological data analysis seem to provide an exponential advantage over the best classical approach. We show that the central task of TDA -- estimating Betti numbers -- is intractable even for quantum computers. We argue that an exponential quantum advantage can be recovered if the input data is given as a specification of simplices.
