Extended Quantum Color Coding
  The quantum color coding scheme proposed by Korff and Kempe (quant-ph/0405086) is easily extended so that the color coding quantum system is allowed to be entangled with an extra auxiliary quantum system. It is shown that in the extended scheme we need only $\sim 2\sqrt{N}$ quantum colors to order $N$ objects in large $N$ limit, whereas $\sim N/e$ quantum colors are required in the original non-extended version. The maximum success probability has asymptotics expressed by the Tracy-Widom distribution of the largest eigenvalue of a random GUE matrix.
