Abstract

In this note we show that all languages in NP have very short (logarithmic size) quantum proofs which can be verified provided that two unentangled copies are given. We thus introduce a new complexity class QMAlog(2) and show that NP ⊆ QMAlog(2). This gives a new perspective when compared to the previously known result QMAlog = BQP. 1
