--- _id: '50273' abstract: - lang: eng text: "The Polynomial-Time Hierarchy ($\\mathsf{PH}$) is a staple of classical\r\ncomplexity theory, with applications spanning randomized computation to circuit\r\nlower bounds to ''quantum advantage'' analyses for near-term quantum computers.\r\nQuantumly, however, despite the fact that at least \\emph{four} definitions of\r\nquantum $\\mathsf{PH}$ exist, it has been challenging to prove analogues for\r\nthese of even basic facts from $\\mathsf{PH}$. This work studies three\r\nquantum-verifier based generalizations of $\\mathsf{PH}$, two of which are from\r\n[Gharibian, Santha, Sikora, Sundaram, Yirka, 2022] and use classical strings\r\n($\\mathsf{QCPH}$) and quantum mixed states ($\\mathsf{QPH}$) as proofs, and one\r\nof which is new to this work, utilizing quantum pure states\r\n($\\mathsf{pureQPH}$) as proofs. We first resolve several open problems from\r\n[GSSSY22], including a collapse theorem and a Karp-Lipton theorem for\r\n$\\mathsf{QCPH}$. Then, for our new class $\\mathsf{pureQPH}$, we show one-sided\r\nerror reduction for $\\mathsf{pureQPH}$, as well as the first bounds relating\r\nthese quantum variants of $\\mathsf{PH}$, namely $\\mathsf{QCPH}\\subseteq\r\n\\mathsf{pureQPH} \\subseteq \\mathsf{EXP}^{\\mathsf{PP}}$." author: - first_name: Avantika full_name: Agarwal, Avantika last_name: Agarwal - first_name: Sevag full_name: Gharibian, Sevag id: '71541' last_name: Gharibian orcid: 0000-0002-9992-3379 - first_name: Venkata full_name: Koppula, Venkata last_name: Koppula - first_name: Dorian full_name: Rudolph, Dorian id: '57863' last_name: Rudolph citation: ama: 'Agarwal A, Gharibian S, Koppula V, Rudolph D.

Existing maturity models fail to adequately address the specific needs of DevOps teams. In response, this paper proposes "Security Belts," a novel maturity model inspired by martial arts ranking systems. This model aims to assist DevOps teams in enhancing their security capabilities by providing a structured approach, starting with fundamental activities and progressing to more advanced techniques. Drawing from the experiences of monitoring 21 teams, the paper presents lessons learned and offers actionable advice for refining maturity models tailored to software quality improvement. author: - first_name: Samira full_name: Taaibi, Samira id: '55800' last_name: Taaibi - first_name: Stefan full_name: Dziwok, Stefan id: '3901' last_name: Dziwok orcid: http://orcid.org/0000-0002-8679-6673 - first_name: Lars full_name: Hermerschmidt, Lars last_name: Hermerschmidt - first_name: Thorsten full_name: Koch, Thorsten id: '13616' last_name: Koch - first_name: Sven full_name: Merschjohann, Sven id: '11394' last_name: Merschjohann - first_name: Mark full_name: Vollmary, Mark last_name: Vollmary citation: ama: 'Taaibi S, Dziwok S, Hermerschmidt L, Koch T, Merschjohann S, Vollmary M.
