IP ⊆ QIP

IP is contained in QIP.

Statement

Migrated verbatim from quantum-interactive-proofs § Known relationships:

• $\mathbf{IP}\subseteq \mathbf{QIP}$: classical interactive proofs are a special case (restrict messages to classical strings).

Notes

source: folklore: the claim carried no citation on the page it was migrated from, and none was invented.

class: unstated: no citing page says which notion of reduction is meant. Recording a class the wiki does not state would add a claim.

class: free because a containment between complexity classes is proved by any argument at all; the reduction-class axis does not discriminate here, and unstated would wrongly suggest the information is missing.

Recorded during migration and not fixed — these are claims about the source text, not changes to it:

• No citation (arguably folklore, but the page does not use the ’— standard’/’— folklore’ label).
