Classical randomized simulation conjecture for divergence-free quadratic ODEs
Classical randomized simulation conjecture for divergence-free quadratic ODEs
Let and define
Assume there is an efficient procedure for sampling from the probability distribution induced by the normalized tensor . Consider the quadratic ODE system
with divergence-free drift and sparse initial condition . Classical simulation conjecture. There exists a classical randomized time-evolution algorithm that solves this system directly in ODE state space with polynomial runtime. The claim concerns a proposed classical counterpart to the quantum simulation method; its validity is left open in the supplied text.
