| Zusammenfassung: | In this paper, we study quantum Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams(
OBDD
) model; it is a restricted version of read-once quantum branching programs, with respect to “width” complexity. It is known that the maximal gap between deterministic and quantum complexities is exponential. But there are few examples of functions with such a gap. We present a new technique (“reordering”) for proving lower bounds and upper bounds for OBDD with an arbitrary order of input variables if we have similar bounds for the natural order. Using this transformation, we construct a total function

such that the deterministic
OBDD
complexity of it is at least

, and the quantum
OBDD
complexity of it is at most

. It is the biggest known gap for explicit functions not representable by
OBDD
s of a linear width. Another function(shifted equality function) allows us to obtain a gap

. Moreover, we prove the bounded error quantum and probabilistic

width hierarchies for complexity classes of Boolean functions. Additionally, using “reordering” method we extend a hierarchy for read-
