Performance of quantum annealing for 2-SAT problems with multiple satisfying assignments
Vrinda Mehta, Hans De Raedt, Kristel Michielsen +1
Using a specially constructed set of hard 2-SAT problems with four satisfying assignments, we study the scaling and sampling performance of numerical simulation of quantum annealin…
