Researchers give the first succinct argument for QMA in the quantum random oracle model from unstructured hardness.

The paper constructs the first succinct argument for QMA in the quantum random oracle model without extra cryptographic assumptions or the quantum PCP conjecture. An efficiency-preserving transformation compiles quantum interactive oracle proofs with public-query soundness into quantum arguments using a quantum commit-and-open paradigm. A key ingredient is extractable vector commitments for quantum states with local openings in the QROM.

Key facts
  • First succinct argument for QMA in the quantum random oracle model.
  • Construction needs no structured cryptography or the quantum PCP conjecture.
  • Public-query-sound QIOPs compile via a quantum commit-and-open paradigm.
  • Extractable vector commitments for quantum states are built in the QROM.

Succinct arguments are a fundamental cryptographic primitive for verifying computational claims with small communication. In the classical setting, succinct arguments for NP can be constructed from unstructured hardness alone (e. g.
