    Supports→A proof that P is strictly contained in BQP would not alone determine the bearing of quantum computation on the limits of feasible computation or on the Cobham-Edmonds thesis

    Empirical investigation beyond the theoretical proof would still be required

    It is thus also reasonable to ask how we might modify the definition of \(\mathfrak{N}\) so as to obtain a characterization of probabilistic algorithms which we might usefully employ. [33] This class can be most readily defined relative to a model of computation known as the probabilistic Turing machine \(\mathfrak{C}\). Such a device \(C\) has access to a random number generator which produces a new bit at each step in its computation but is otherwise like a conventional Turing machine. The act
