Abstract
A path for efficient classical simulation of the DQC1 circuit that estimates the trace of an implementable unitary under the zero discord condition [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 190502 (2010)] is presented. This result reinforces the status of non-classical correlations quantified by quantum discord and related measures as the key resource enabling exponential speedups in mixed state quantum computation.
