The trouble with a proof like that is that even if you have a r andom oracle there is no way to prove it's a random oracle . > > > Not sure what the situation of complexity classes is with qunatum > computers. Nobody knows, all we know for certain is that quantum algorithms have been found that can solve problems MUCH faster than the best known conventional algorithms, but there is no proof that a equally good conventional algorithm won't be found tomorrow, although I'd be astonished if it were.
