Quantum Circuits for the Metropolis-Hastings Algorithm
Baptiste Claudon, Pablo Rodenas-Ruiz, Jean-Philip Piquemal +1
Szegedy's quantization of a reversible Markov chain provides a quantum walk whose spectral gap is quadratically larger than that of the classical walk. Quantum computers are theref…

Convergence rates for an Adaptive Biasing Potential scheme from a Wasserstein optimization perspective
Tony Lelièvre, Xuyang Lin, Pierre Monmarché
Free-energy-based adaptive biasing methods, such as Metadynamics, the Adaptive Biasing Force (ABF) and their variants, are enhanced sampling algorithms widely used in molecular sim…
