Negative weights make adversaries stronger
The quantum adversary method is one of the most successful techniques for proving lower bounds on quantum query complexity. It gives optimal lower bounds for many problems, has ap...

Some 3CNF properties are hard to test
For a Boolean formula on n variables, the associated property P is the collection of n-bit strings that satisfy . We study the query complexity of tests that distinguish (with hig...
