Marton's conjecture in polynomial time

Srinivasan Arunachalam

Abstract

Gowers, Green, Manners, and Tao (Annals '25) recently resolved Marton's polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa conjecture. We give an algorithmic counterpart to their result: given uniform sampling and membership-oracle access to a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n$ with doubling constant at most $K$, our algorithm outputs a subspace of size at most $|A|$ whose $K^{O(1)}$ translates cover $A$. The algorithm runs in $\textsf{poly}(n,K)$ time. As applications, we obtain polynomial-time algorithms for a variety of...

Description / Details

Gowers, Green, Manners, and Tao (Annals '25) recently resolved Marton's polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa conjecture. We give an algorithmic counterpart to their result: given uniform sampling and membership-oracle access to a set AβŠ†F2nA \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n with doubling constant at most KK, our algorithm outputs a subspace of size at most ∣A∣|A| whose KO(1)K^{O(1)} translates cover AA. The algorithm runs in poly(n,K)\textsf{poly}(n,K) time. As applications, we obtain polynomial-time algorithms for a variety of learning problems, including quadratic Goldreich-Levin, improper agnostic tomography of stabilizer states, and tomography of quantum states with bounded stabilizer extent.
