Continuous-time quantum walks for MAX-CUT are hot
Robert J. Banks, Ehsan Haque, Farah Nazef +21
By exploiting the link between time-independent Hamiltonians and thermalisation, heuristic predictions on the performance of continuous-time quantum walks for MAX-CUT are made. The…
Controllable tunnelling of single flux-quanta mediated by quantum phase-slip in disordered superconducting loops
Jamie A. Potter, Jonathan C. Fenton, Paul A. Warburton
Quantum phase-slip (QPS) is the exact dual to the well-known Josephson effect. Although there are numerous proposals for applications of QPS devices, experimental work to develop t…
Rapid quantum approaches for combinatorial optimisation inspired by optimal state-transfer
Robert J. Banks, Dan E. Browne, P. A. Warburton
We propose a new design heuristic to tackle combinatorial optimisation problems, inspired by Hamiltonians for optimal state-transfer. The result is a rapid approximate optimisation…
Towards solving the Fermi-Hubbard model via tailored quantum annealers
Ryan Levy, Zoe Gonzalez Izquierdo, Zhihui Wang +8
The Fermi-Hubbard model (FHM) on a two dimensional square lattice has long been an important testbed and target for simulating fermionic Hamiltonians on quantum hardware. We presen…
Effects of XX-catalysts on quantum annealing spectra with perturbative crossings
Natasha Feinstein, Louis Fry-Bouriaux, Sougato Bose +1
In adiabatic quantum annealing the required run-time to reach a given ground-state fidelity is dictated by the size of the minimum gap that appears between the ground and first exc…
A Cost and Power Feasibility Analysis of Quantum Annealing for NextG Cellular Wireless Networks
Srikar Kasi, P. A. Warburton, John Kaewell +1
In order to meet mobile cellular users' ever-increasing data demands, today's 4G and 5G networks are designed mainly with the goal of maximizing spectral efficiency. While they hav…
