arXiv:2606. 02641v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Interactive driving exposes a failure mode that is easy to miss in rule-aware autonomous-driving stacks: a hard-rule margin can be negative for an ego candidate even though a small lawful accommodation by a non-priority agent would restore feasibility.

The paper introduces APGEM, an adaptive controller that dynamically selects among four error‑mitigation techniques—Zero‑Noise Extrapolation, Probabilistic Error Cancellation, Clifford Data Regression, and Readout Error Mitigation—based on a utility function and Q‑learning scores. Applied to a realistic Delhi‑based Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem, the adaptive approach improves the quantum reinforcement learning agent’s approximation ratios from 0.84‑0.87 to 0.92‑0.94 under high noise, outperforming constructive heuristics and approaching metaheuristics. The controller’s strategy shifts from a Clifford‑data‑regression‑heavy regime early in training to a balanced use of all techniques as training progresses, demonstrating regime‑dependent selection.

The paper investigates whether a learner or tester with limited resources can improve performance by interacting with an untrusted, resource‑unconstrained party. It shows that for many scenarios, classical interaction offers no advantage, especially for memory‑constrained quantum algorithms. However, when quantum communication is permitted, interactive proof protocols enable memory‑constrained quantum verifiers to achieve significant gains through delegation.

arXiv:2509. 08654v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Quantum network routing requires online decisions under probabilistic entanglement generation, finite quantum memories, decoherence, imperfect operations, and classical feedback, while the controller has incomplete knowledge of the physical state.
