Classical Thermometry of Quantum Annealers
George Grattan, Pratik Sathe, Cristiano Nisoli
Quantum annealers are emerging as programmable, dynamical experimental platforms for probing strongly correlated spin systems. Yet key thermal assumptions, chiefly a Gibbs-distribu…
Iterative quantum optimization of spin glass problems with rapidly oscillating transverse fields
Brandon Barton, Jacob Sagal, Sean Feeney +5
In this work, we introduce a new iterative quantum algorithm, called Iterative Symphonic Tunneling for Satisfiability problems (IST-SAT), which solves quantum spin glass optimizati…
Characterization and thermometry of dissapatively stabilized steady states
George Grattan, Alek M. Liguori-Schremp, David. Rodríguez Pérez +3
In this work we study the properties of dissipatively stabilized steady states of noisy quantum algorithms, exploring the extent to which they can be well approximated as thermal d…
On the approximability of random-hypergraph MAX-3-XORSAT problems with quantum algorithms
Eliot Kapit, Brandon A. Barton, Sean Feeney +5
A canonical feature of the constraint satisfaction problems in NP is approximation hardness, where in the worst case, finding sufficient-quality approximate solutions is exponentia…
