QMA, or Quantum Merlin Arthur, is a complexity class that extends the classical NP class into the realm of quantum computing. In this framework, a quantum computer (Arthur) can verify the correctness of solutions provided by a quantum prover (Merlin) using a polynomial number of queries. The verification process can leverage the power of quantum mechanics, allowing for the potential resolution of certain problems more efficiently than classical counterparts.
congrats on reading the definition of QMA. now let's actually learn it.
