内容:

 We show that the quantum query complexity of detecting if an n-vertex graph contains a triangle is O(n^{9/7}). This improves the previous best algorithm making O(n^{35/27}) queries. For the problem of determining if a binary operation on a set of size n is associative, we give an algorithm making O(n^{10/7}) queries, the first improvement to the trivial O(n^{3/2}) application of Grover search.

 Our algorithms are designed using the learning graph framework of Belovs. This recently introduced model of computing can be viewed as the minimization form of the general adversary bound with additional structure imposed on the form of the solution.

 In the talk, before explaining the new algorithms, I will give a detailed introduction to the learning graph model. The talk is self contained, and it doesn't require any previous knowledge about quantum computing.

 This is joint work with Troy Lee and Frédéric Magniez.
