Abstract
An open problem that is widely regarded as one of the most important in quantum query complexity is to resolve the quantum query complexity of the k-distinctness function on inputs of size N. While the case of k=2 (also called Element Distinctness) is well-understood, there is a polynomial gap between the known upper and lower bounds for all constants k>2. Specifically, the best known upper bound is O(N^{(3/4)-1/(2^{k+2}-4)}) (Belovs, FOCS 2012), while the best known lower bound for k >= 2 is Omega(N^{2/3} + N^{(3/4)-1/(2k)}) (Aaronson and Shi, J.~ACM 2004; Bun, Kothari, and Thaler, STOC 2018). For any constant k >= 4, we improve the lower bound to Omega(N^{(3/4)-1/(4k)}). This yields, for example, the first proof that 4-distinctness is strictly harder than Element Distinctness. Our lower bound applies more generally to approximate degree. As a secondary result, we give a simple construction of an approximating polynomial of degree O(N^{3/4}) that applies whenever k <= polylog(N).

  • Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
  • We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
  • We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
  • The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
  • Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance

要点】:本文改进了k-不同性问题的近似度界,为k≥4的情况提供了新的下界,证明了4-不同性问题比元素不同性问题更难,并给出了一个近似多项式的构造方法。

方法】:作者通过分析k-不同性函数的量子查询复杂性,提出了新的近似度界下界公式,并使用近似多项式的方法来支持其理论。

实验】:本文主要侧重于理论分析和证明,未提供具体实验。文中提及的数据集名称未明确,但结果为将k-不同性问题的下界从Omega(N^{2/3} + N^{(3/4)-1/(2k)})改进至Omega(N^{(3/4)-1/(4k)}),并为k≤polylog(N)的情况构造了一个度数为O(N^{3/4})的近似多项式。
