I *think* the original Harrow Montenaro product state tester is still the best algorithm we know for testing (, with recent improvements to the analysis (see . I don’t know of any work on tolerant testing product states (besides using agnostic learning).

It’s been amazing working with Barak and Mark on this, and I’m super excited about the potential uses of both our duality theorem, and the ideas behind our quantum money construction! If you’re interested in quantum money, lightning, or fire, don’t hesitate to contact us! 😃
