QAOAKit: A Toolkit for Reproducible Study, Application, and Verification of the QAOA
Ruslan Shaydulin, Kunal Marwaha, Jonathan Wurtz +1
Understanding the best known parameters, performance, and systematic behavior of the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) remain open research questions, even as the a…
The fixed angle conjecture for QAOA on regular MaxCut graphs
Jonathan Wurtz, Danylo Lykov
The quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) is a near-term combinatorial optimization algorithm suitable for noisy quantum devices. However, little is known about perform…
Counterdiabaticity and the quantum approximate optimization algorithm
Jonathan Wurtz, Peter J. Love
The quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) is a near-term hybrid algorithm intended to solve combinatorial optimization problems, such as MaxCut. QAOA can be made to mim…
Classically optimal variational quantum algorithms
Jonathan Wurtz, Peter Love
Hybrid quantum-classical algorithms, such as variational quantum algorithms (VQA), are suitable for implementation on NISQ computers. In this Letter we expand an implicit step of V…
