Preparation of many-body states for quantum simulation
Nicholas J. Ward, Ivan Kassal, Alán Aspuru-Guzik
While quantum computers are capable of simulating many quantum systems efficiently, the simulation algorithms must begin with the preparation of an appropriate initial state. We pr…
Environment-Assisted Quantum Transport
Patrick Rebentrost, Masoud Mohseni, Ivan Kassal +2
Transport phenomena at the nanoscale are of interest due to the presence of both quantum and classical behavior. In this work, we demonstrate that quantum transport efficiency can…
On the construction of model Hamiltonians for adiabatic quantum computation and its application to finding low energy conformations of lattice protein models
Alejandro Perdomo, Colin Truncik, Ivan Tubert-Brohman +2
In this report, we explore the use of a quantum optimization algorithm for obtaining low energy conformations of protein models. We discuss mappings between protein models and opti…
Direct Estimation of Single- and Two-Qubit Hamiltonians and Relaxation Rates
M. Mohseni, A. T. Rezakhani, A. Aspuru-Guzik
We provide a novel approach for characterization of quantum Hamiltonian systems via utilizing a single measurement device. Specifically, we demonstrate how external quantum correla…
