Limitations of the Macaulay matrix approach for using the HHL algorithm to solve multivariate polynomial systems

Recently Chen and Gao~\cite{ChenGao2017} proposed a new quantum algorithm for Boolean polynomial system solving, motivated by the cryptanalysis of some post-quantum cryptosystems. The key idea of their approach is to apply a Quantum Linear System (QLS) algorithm to a Macaulay linear system over $\mathbb{C}$, which is derived from the Boolean polynomial system. The efficiency of their algorithm depends on the condition number of the Macaulay matrix. In this paper, we give a strong lower bound on the condition number as a function of the Hamming weight of the Boolean solution, and show that in many (if not all) cases a Grover-based exhaustive search algorithm outperforms their algorithm. Then, we improve upon Chen and Gao's algorithm by introducing the Boolean Macaulay linear system over $\mathbb{C}$ by reducing the original Macaulay linear system. This improved algorithm could potentially significantly outperform the brute-force algorithm, when the Hamming weight of the solution is logarithmic in the number of Boolean variables. Furthermore, we provide a simple and more elementary proof of correctness for our improved algorithm using a reduction employing the Valiant-Vazirani affine hashing method, and also extend the result to polynomial systems over $\mathbb{F}_q$ improving on subsequent work by Chen, Gao and Yuan \cite{ChenGao2018}. We also suggest a new approach for extracting the solution of the Boolean polynomial system via a generalization of the quantum coupon collector problem \cite{arunachalam2020QuantumCouponCollector}.

A physical study of the LLL algorithm

This paper presents a study of the LLL algorithm from the perspective of statistical physics. Based on our experimental and theoretical results, we suggest that interpreting LLL as a sandpile model may help understand much of its mysterious behavior. In the language of physics, our work presents evidence that LLL and certain 1-d sandpile models with simpler toppling rules belong to the same universality class. This paper consists of three parts. First, we introduce sandpile models whose statistics imitate those of LLL with compelling accuracy, which leads to the idea that there must exist a meaningful connection between the two. Indeed, on those sandpile models, we are able to prove the analogues of some of the most desired statements for LLL, such as the existence of the gap between the theoretical and the experimental RHF bounds. Furthermore, we test the formulas from the finite-size scaling theory (FSS) against the LLL algorithm itself, and find that they are in excellent agreement. This in particular explains and refines the geometric series assumption (GSA), and allows one to extrapolate various quantities of interest to the dimension limit. In particular, we predict the empirical average RHF converges to $\approx 1.02265$ as dimension goes to infinity.

LLL and stochastic sandpile models

Theaimofthepresentpaperistosuggestthatstatisticalphysicsprovides the correct language to understand the practical behavior of the LLL algorithm, most of which are left unexplained to this day. To this end, we propose sandpile models that imitate LLL with compelling accuracy, and prove for these models some of the most desired statements regarding LLL. We also formulate a few conjectures that formally capture our heuristics and would serve as milestones for further development of the theory.

Generalized Drinfeld realization of quantum superalgebras and $U_q(\hat {\frak osp}(1,2))$

In this paper, we extend the generalization of Drinfeld realization of quantum affine algebras to quantum affine superalgebras with its Drinfeld comultiplication and its Hopf algebra structure, which depends on a function $g(z)$ satisfying the relation: $g(z)=g(z^{-1})^{-1}.$ In particular, we present the Drinfeld realization of $U_q(\hat {\frak osp}(1,2))$ and its Serre relations.

On the FRTS approach to quantized current algebras

We study the possibility to establish $L$-operator's formalism by Faddeev-Reshetikhin-Takhtajan-Semenov-Tian-Shansky (FRST) for quantized current algebras, that is, for quantum affine algebras in the ''new realization '' by V. Drinfeld with the corresponding Hopf algebra structure and for their Yangian counterpart. We establish this formalism using the twisting procedure by Tolstoy and the second author and explain the problems which FRST approach encounter for quantized current algebras. We show also that, for the case of $U_q(\hat {\frak sl}_n)$, entries of the L-operators of FRTS type give the Drinfeld current operators for the non-simple roots, which we discovered recently. As an application we deduce the commutation relations between these current operators for $U_q(\hat {\frak sl}_3)$.

Weyl group extension of quantized current algebras

In this paper, we extend the Drinfeld current realization of quantum affine algebras $U_q(\hat {\gg})$ and of the Yangians in several directions: we construct current operators for non-simple roots of ${\gg}$, define a new braid group action in terms of the current operators and describe the universal R-matrix for the corresponding ``Drinfeld'' comultiplication in the form of infinite product and in the form of certain integrals over current operators.

Quantized W-algebra of ${\frak sl}(2,1)$ : a construction from the quantization of screening operators

Starting from bosonization, we study the operator that commute or commute up-to a total difference with of any quantized screen operator of a free field. We show that if there exists a operator in the form of a sum of two vertex operators which has the simplest correlation functions with the quantized screen operator, namely a function with one pole and one zero, then, the screen operator and this operator are uniquely determined, and this operator is the quantized virasoro algebra. For the case when the screen is a fermion, there are a family of this kind of operator, which give new algebraic structures. Similarly we study the case of two quantized screen operator, which uniquely gives us the quantized W-algebra corresponding to $sl(3)$ for the generic case, and a new algebra, which is a quantized W-algebra corresponding to ${\frak sl}(2,1)$, for the case that one of the two screening operators is or both are fermions.

Hopf algebra extension of a Zamolochikov algebra and its double

The particles with a scattering matrix R(x) are defined as operators $Φ_i(z)$ satisfying the relation $ R_{i,j}^{j',i'}(x_1/x_2) Φ_{i'}(x_1)Φ_{j'}(x_2)= Φ_i(x_2)Φ_j(x_1)$. The algebra generated by those operators is called a Zamolochikov algebra. We construct a new Hopf algebra by adding half of the FRTS construction of a quantum affine algebra with this R(x). Then we double it to obtain a new Hopf algebra such that the full FRTS construction of a quantum affine algebra is a Hopf subalgebra inside. Drinfeld realization of quantum affine algebras is included as an example. This is a further generalization of the constructions in q-alg/9608002.

Quantum current operators (III): Commutative quantum current operators, semi-infinite construction and functional models

We construct a commutative current operator $\bar x^+(z)$ inside $U_q(\hat{\frak sl}(2))$. With this operator and the condition of quantum integrability on the quantum current of $U_q(\hat{\frak sl}(2))$, we derive the quantization of the semi-infinite construction of integrable modules of $\hat{\frak sl}(2)$ with the current operator $e(z)$ of $\hat{\frak sl}(2)$. The quantization of the functional models for $\hat{\frak sl}(2)$ are also given.

Difference equations of quantum current operators and quantum parafermion construction

For the current realization of the affine quantum groups, a simple comultiplication for the quantum current operators was given by Drinfeld. With this comultiplication, we prove that, for the integrable modules of $U_q(\hat {\frak sl}(2))$ of level $k+1$, $x^\pm(z)x^\pm(zq^{\pm 2}) \cdot\cdot\cdot x^\pm(zq^{\pm 2k})$ are vertex operators satisfying certain q-difference equations, and we derive the quantum parafermions of $U_q(\hat {\frak sl}(2))$.

Zeros and poles of quantum current operators and the condition of quantum integrability

For the current realization of the affine quantum groups, a simple comultiplication for the quantum current operators was given by Drinfeld. With this comultiplication, we study the zeros and poles of the quantum current operators and present a condition of integrability on the quantum current of $U_q\left(\hat{\frak sl}(2)\right)$, which is a deformation of the corresponding condition for $\hat{\frak sl}(2)$. We also present the results about the zeros and poles of the quantum current operators of $U_q\left(\hat{\frak sl}(n)\right)$.

Generalization and Deformation of Drinfeld quantum affine algebras

Drinfeld gave a current realization of the quantum affine algebras as a Hopf algebra with a simple comultiplication for the quantum current operators. In this paper, we will present a generalization of such a realization of quantum Hopf algebras. As a special case, we will choose the structure functions for this algebra to be elliptic functions to derive certain elliptic quantum groups as a Hopf algebra, which degenerates into quantum affine algebras if we take certain degeneration of the structure functions.

Drinfeld comultiplication and vertex operators

For the current realization of the quantum affine algebras, Drinfeld gave a simple comultiplication of the quantum current operators. With this comultiplication, we study the related vertex operators for the case of $U_q(\hgtsl_n)$ and give an explicit bosonization of these new vertex operators. We use these vertex operators to construct the quantum current operators of $U_q(\hgtsl_n)$ and discuss its connection with quantum boson-fermion correspondence.
