Quantum state preparation by phase randomization
S. Boixo, E. Knill, R. D. Somma
A computation in adiabatic quantum computing is implemented by traversing a path of nondegenerate eigenstates of a continuous family of Hamiltonians. We introduce a method that tra…

Quantum Simulations of Classical Annealing Processes
R. D. Somma, S. Boixo, H. Barnum +1
We describe a quantum algorithm that solves combinatorial optimization problems by quantum simulation of a classical simulated annealing process. Our algorithm exploits quantum wal…

Generalized Limits for Single-Parameter Quantum Estimation
Sergio Boixo, Steven T. Flammia, Carlton M. Caves +1
We develop generalized bounds for quantum single-parameter estimation problems for which the coupling to the parameter is described by intrinsic multi-system interactions. For a Ha…
