A Variable Neighbourhood Descent Heuristic for Conformational Search Using a Quantum Annealer
D. J. J. Marchand, M. Noori, A. Roberts +6
Discovering the low-energy conformations of a molecule is of great interest to computational chemists, with applications in {\em in silico} materials design and drug discovery. In…
VanQver: The Variational and Adiabatically Navigated Quantum Eigensolver
Shunji Matsuura, Takeshi Yamazaki, Valentin Senicourt +2
The accelerated progress in manufacturing noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) computing hardware has opened the possibility of exploring its application in transforming approac…
Uncertain fate of fair sampling in quantum annealing
Mario S. Könz, Guglielmo Mazzola, Andrew J. Ochoa +2
Recently, it was demonstrated both theoretically and experimentally on the D-Wave quantum annealer that transverse-field quantum annealing does not find all ground states with equa…
A small-world search for quantum speedup: How small-world interactions can lead to improved quantum annealer designs
Helmut G. Katzgraber, M. A. Novotny
There are many factors that influence the design of quantum annealing processing units. Here we address the issue of improving quantum annealing processing unit designs from the po…
Quantum control for high-fidelity multi-qubit gates
Raymond J. Spiteri, Marina Schmidt, Joydip Ghosh +2
Quantum control for error correction is critical for the practical use of quantum computers. We address quantum optimal control for single-shot multi-qubit gates by framing as a fe…
Nested Quantum Annealing Correction at Finite Temperature: -spin models
Shunji Matsuura, Hidetoshi Nishimori, Walter Vinci +1
Quantum annealing in a real device is necessarily susceptible to errors due to diabatic transitions and thermal noise. Nested quantum annealing correction is a method to suppress e…
