Effect of Local Minima on Adiabatic Quantum Optimization
M. H. S. Amin
We present a perturbative method to estimate the spectral gap for adiabatic quantum optimization, based on the structure of the energy levels in the problem Hamiltonian. We show th…

Landau-Zener transitions in the presence of spin environment
Andy T. S. Wan, M. H. S. Amin, Shannon X. Wang
We study the effect of an environment consisting of noninteracting two level systems on Landau-Zener transitions with an interest on the performance of an adiabatic quantum compute…
