In this paper, we give a one-pass quantum streaming algorithm for Max-$k$SAT that uses $\operatorname{polylog}(n)$ space and achieves a $0.7426$-approximation on instances with $n$ variables and $\operatorname{poly}(n)$ clauses. In contrast, prior work by Chou, Golovnev, and Velusamy (FOCS 2020) implies that achieving an approximation ratio better than $\sqrt{2}/2 \approx 0.7071$ for Max-$k$SAT requires $Ω(\sqrt{n})$ space for any classical streaming algorithm. Therefore, it yields an exponential quantum space advantage for Max-$k$SAT in the streaming setting. Combining with the known results, it gives a complete classification of quantum space advantages for all Boolean Max-2CSPs.
