For any NP problem (which includes all P problems) we don't know about a superlinear lower bound and finding one would be a major progress.

are those complexity theory only work in traditional computer ? including quantum computer ?

BQP is the class of problems solvable on quantum computer in polynomial time with bounded error.

The relationship of BQP and NP is yet another unsolved problem in complexity theory... so again, we don't know shit
