Francois Le Gall, Shota Nakagawa, Harumichi Nishimura

TL;DR
This paper presents a QMA protocol for 3-SAT using two short, unentangled quantum proofs, achieving a significantly improved completeness-soundness gap over previous methods for NP-complete problems.
Contribution
It introduces a novel QMA protocol with two logarithmic-size proofs and a large gap, advancing the understanding of quantum proof systems for NP-complete problems.
Findings
Achieves a gap of Omega(1/n polylog(n)) in the QMA protocol.
Uses two short, unentangled quantum proofs.
Improves previous completeness-soundness bounds for NP-complete problems.
Abstract
This paper gives a QMA (Quantum Merlin-Arthur) protocol for 3-SAT with two logarithmic-size quantum proofs (that are not entangled with each other) such that the gap between the completeness and the soundness is Omega(1/n polylog(n)). This improves the best completeness/soundness gaps known for NP-complete problems in this setting.
