Polynomial time reduction from 3SAT to solving low first fall degree multivariable cubic equations system

Koster shows that the problem for deciding whether the value of Semaev\u27s formula $S_m(x_1,...,x_m)$ is $0$ or not, is NP-complete. This result directly does not means ECDLP being NP-complete, but, it suggests ECDLP being NP-complete. Further, Semaev shows that the equations system using $m-2$ number of $S_3(x_1,x_2,x_3)$, which is equivalent to decide whether the value of Semaev\u27s formula $S_m(x_1,...,x_m)$ is $0$ or not, has constant(not depend on $m$ and $n$) first fall degree. So, under the first fall degree assumption, its complexity is poly in $n$ ($O(n^{Const})$).And so, suppose $P\ne NP$, which almost all researcher assume this, it has a contradiction and we see that first fall degree assumption is not true. Koster shows the NP-completeness from the group belonging problem, which is NP-complete, reduces to the problem for deciding whether the value of Semaev\u27s formula $S_m(x_1,...,x_m)$ is $0$ or not, in polynomial time. In this paper, from another point of view, we discuss this situation. Here, we construct some equations system defined over arbitrary field $K$ and its first fall degree is small, from any 3SAT problem. The cost for solving this equations system is polynomial times under the first fall degree assumption. So, 3SAT problem, which is NP-complete, reduced to the problem in P under the first fall degree assumption. Almost all researcher assume $P \ne NP$, and so, it concludes that the first fall degree assumption is not true. However, we can take K=\bR(not finite field. It means that 3SAT reduces to solving multivariable equations system defined over $\R$ and there are many method for solving this by numerical computation. So, I must point out the very small possibility that NP complete problem is reduces to solving cubic equations equations system over \bR which can be solved in polynomial time

Quantum information processing in continuous time

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Physics, 2004.Includes bibliographical references (p. 127-138) and index.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Quantum mechanical computers can solve certain problems asymptotically faster than any classical computing device. Several fast quantum algorithms are known, but the nature of quantum speedup is not well understood, and inventing new quantum algorithms seems to be difficult. In this thesis, we explore two approaches to designing quantum algorithms based on continuous-time Hamiltonian dynamics. In quantum computation by adiabatic evolution, the computer is prepared in the known ground state of a simple Hamiltonian, which is slowly modified so that its ground state encodes the solution to a problem. We argue that this approach should be inherently robust against low-temperature thermal noise and certain control errors, and we support this claim using simulations. We then show that any adiabatic algorithm can be implemented in a different way, using only a sequence of measurements of the Hamiltonian. We illustrate how this approach can achieve quadratic speedup for the unstructured search problem. We also demonstrate two examples of quantum speedup by quantum walk, a quantum mechanical analog of random walk. First, we consider the problem of searching a region of space for a marked item. Whereas a classical algorithm for this problem requires time proportional to the number of items regardless of the geometry, we show that a simple quantum walk algorithm can find the marked item quadratically faster for a lattice of dimension greater than four, and almost quadratically faster for a four-dimensional lattice. We also show that by endowing the walk with spin degrees of freedom, the critical dimension can be lowered to two. Second, we construct an oracular problem that a quantum walk can solve exponentially faster than any classical algorithm.(cont.) This constitutes the only known example of exponential quantum speedup not based on the quantum Fourier transform. Finally, we consider bipartite Hamiltonians as a model of quantum channels and study their ability to process information given perfect local control. We show that any interaction can simulate any other at a nonzero rate, and that tensor product Hamiltonians can simulate each other reversibly. We also calculate the optimal asymptotic rate at which certain Hamiltonians can generate entanglement.by Andrew MacGregor Childs.Ph.D
