Abstract

An explicit quantum dual adversary for the S-isomorphism problem is constructed. As a consequence, this gives an alternative proof that the query complexity of the dihedral hidden subgroup problem is polynomial.

This research is partly supported by the ERDF grant number 1.1.1.2/VIAA/1/16/113.
