Architectural considerations in the design of a third-generation superconducting quantum annealing processor
Kelly Boothby, Colin Enderud, Trevor Lanting +46
Early generations of superconducting quantum annealing processors have provided a valuable platform for studying the performance of a scalable quantum computing technology. These s…
On composite systems of dilute and dense couplings
Jack Raymond, David Saad
Composite systems, where couplings are of two types, a combination of strong dilute and weak dense couplings of Ising spins, are examined through the replica method. The dilute and…
Composite CDMA - A statistical mechanics analysis
Jack Raymond, David Saad
Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) in which the spreading code assignment to users contains a random element has recently become a cornerstone of CDMA research. The random elemen…
Quantum dynamics in frustrated Ising fullerenes
Alejandro Lopez-Bezanilla, William Bernoudy, Kelly Boothby +3
The complex energy landscapes exhibited by frustrated magnetic systems undergoing quantum fluctuations are a challenge to accurately simulate, and thus of great interest for testin…
Equilibrium properties of disordered spin models with two scale interactions
Jack Raymond, David Saad
Methods for understanding classical disordered spin systems with interactions conforming to some idealized graphical structure are well developed. The equilibrium properties of the…
Quantum Annealing amid Local Ruggedness and Global Frustration
James King, Sheir Yarkoni, Jack Raymond +5
A recent Google study [Phys. Rev. X, 6:031015 (2016)] compared a D-Wave 2X quantum processing unit (QPU) to two classical Monte Carlo algorithms: simulated annealing (SA) and quant…
