A quantum position-verification scheme attempts to verify the spatial location of a prover. The prover is issued a challenge with quantum and classical inputs and must respond with appropriate timings. We consider two well-studied position-verification schemes known as $f$-routing and $f$-BB84. Both schemes require an honest prover to locally compute a classical function $f$ of inputs of length $n$, and manipulate $O(1)$ size quantum systems. Taking $f(x,y)=\sum_i x_i y_i$ to be the inner product function, we prove that a dishonest prover must execute $\Omega(n)$ quantum gates or single qubit measurements. Our proof uses a reduction to simultaneous message passing with classical communication and shared entanglement. The scheme is feasible for a prover with polynomial classical resources and $O(1)$ quantum resources, and secure against sub-linear quantum resources.
