Abstract: It is shown that determining whether a quantum computation has a nonzero probability of accepting is at least as hard as the polynomialtime hierarchy. This hardness result also applies to determining in general whether a given quantum basis state appears with nonzero amplitude in a superposition, or whether a given quantum bit has positive expectation value at the end of a quantum computation. 1 Introduction This decade has seen renewed interest and great activity in quantum computing. This... (Update)

...the QACC operator is non zero. This is analogous to the de nition of the class NQP in Adleman et al. 10] and discussed in Fenner et al. [11] where it is shown that NQP is classically of high complexity, and in particular is hard for the polynomial time hierarchy. In this way...
