Flow Ambiguity: A Path Towards Classically Driven Blind Quantum Computation
Blind quantum computation protocols allow a user to delegate a computation to
a remote quantum computer in such a way that the privacy of their computation
is preserved, even from the device implementing the computation. To date, such
protocols are only known for settings involving at least two quantum devices:
either a user with some quantum capabilities and a remote quantum server or two
or more entangled but noncommunicating servers. In this work, we take the first
step towards the construction of a blind quantum computing protocol with a
completely classical client and single quantum server. Specifically, we show
how a classical client can exploit the ambiguity in the flow of information in
measurement-based quantum computing to construct a protocol for hiding critical
aspects of a computation delegated to a remote quantum computer. This ambiguity
arises due to the fact that, for a fixed graph, there exist multiple choices of
the input and output vertex sets that result in deterministic measurement
patterns consistent with the same fixed total ordering of vertices. This allows
a classical user, computing only measurement angles, to drive a
measurement-based computation performed on a remote device while hiding
critical aspects of the computation.Comment: (v3) 14 pages, 6 figures. expands introduction and definition of

Existence and smoothness of the stable foliation for sectional hyperbolic attractors
We prove the existence of a contracting invariant topological foliation in a
full neighborhood for partially hyperbolic attractors. Under certain bunching
conditions it can then be shown that this stable foliation is smooth.
Specialising to sectional hyperbolic attractors, we give a verifiable condition
for bunching. In particular, we show that the stable foliation for the
classical Lorenz equation (and nearby vector fields) is better than which
is crucial for recent results on exponential decay of correlations. In fact the
foliation is at least .Comment: Corrected estimate for smoothness of stable foliation. Clarification
of which results hold for general partially hyperbolic attractors. Some minor
typos fixed. Accepted for publication in Bull. London Math. So
Expressiveness of Generic Process Shape Types
Shape types are a general concept of process types which work for many
process calculi. We extend the previously published Poly* system of shape types
to support name restriction. We evaluate the expressiveness of the extended
system by showing that shape types are more expressive than an implicitly typed
pi-calculus and an explicitly typed Mobile Ambients. We demonstrate that the
extended system makes it easier to enjoy advantages of shape types which
include polymorphism, principal typings, and a type inference implementation.Comment: Submitted to Trustworthy Global Computing (TGC) 2010
