This leads to an n^2 / log^2 n lower bound for quantum formulas computing an explicit function. The only known previous explicit lower bound for quantum formulas (by Yao) states that the majority function does not have a linear-size quantum formula.14 pages, 6 figuresQuantum PhysicsComputational ComplexityAn Almost-Quadratic Lower Bound for Quantum Formula Sizetext
