Quantum annealing and condensed matter physics
Viv Kendon, Nicholas Chancellor
Quantum annealing leverages the properties of interacting quantum spin systems to solve computational problems, typically optimisation problems. Current hardware now has capabiliti…
Continuum Limits of Lazy Open Quantum Walks
Lara Janiurek, Viv Kendon
We derive the continuous spacetime limit of the one dimensional lazy discrete time quantum walk, obtaining explicit macroscopic evolution equations for a three state model in the p…
Improving success probability in the LHZ parity embedding by computing with quantum walks
Jemma Bennett, Nicholas Chancellor, Viv Kendon +1
The LHZ parity embedding is one of the front-running methods for implementing difficult-to-engineer long-range interactions in quantum optimisation problems. Continuous-time quantu…
A Review and Collection of Metrics and Benchmarks for Quantum Computers: definitions, methodologies and software
Deep Lall, Abhishek Agarwal, Weixi Zhang +15
Quantum computers have the potential to provide an advantage over classical computers in a number of areas. Numerous metrics to benchmark the performance of quantum computers, rang…
