Abstract: We compare classical and quantum query complexities of total Boolean functions. It is known
that for worst-case complexity, the gap between quantum and classical can be at most polynomial
[BBC
+
98]. We show that for average-case complexity under the uniform distribution,
quantum algorithms can be exponentially faster than classical algorithms. Under non-uniform
distributions the gap can even be super-exponential. We also prove some general bounds for
average-case complexity and show that the ... (Update)
