Revisiting the Quantum-Guided Cluster Algorithm: Improvements and Numerical Experiments

Peter J. Eder, Sarah Braun

We study correlation-guided cluster algorithms for solving the Max-Cut problem that iteratively try to improve solutions by updating clusters of nodes. Building on the recently pro…

Open-System Adiabatic Quantum Search under Dephasing

Afaf El Kalai, Peter J. Eder, Christian B. Mendl

Adiabatic quantum algorithms must evolve slowly enough to suppress non-adiabatic transitions while remaining fast enough to be practical. In open systems, this trade-off is reshape…

Quantum Dissipative Search via Lindbladians

Peter J. Eder, Jernej Rudi Finžgar, Sarah Braun +1

Closed quantum systems follow a unitary time evolution that can be simulated on quantum computers. By incorporating non-unitary effects via, e.g., measurements on ancilla qubits, t…
