From Heat to Homology: Spectral Gap Transfer for Exact Quantum Gibbs Sampling at All Temperatures

Caesnan M. G. Leditto, Kuo-Chin Chen, Min-Hsiu Hsieh

Preparing Gibbs states through dissipative dynamics requires controlling convergence for the chosen Hamiltonian and coupling operators. However, efficient implementation requir…

Double Localization for Quantum Gibbs Sampler Gaps: From an Abstract Framework to Finite-Group Models

Ryu Hayakawa, Angus Southwell, Caesnan M. G. Leditto +2

We introduce double localization, a framework for proving spectral gaps of quantum Gibbs samplers through two complementary operations: geometric localization, which selects update…

Quantum Walks on Simplicial Complexes and Harmonic Homology: Application to Topological Data Analysis with Superpolynomial Speedups

Ryu Hayakawa, Kuo-Chin Chen, Min-Hsiu Hsieh

This work investigates whether quantum walks on simplicial complexes exhibit quantum advantages. We introduce a novel quantum walk that encodes the combinatorial Laplacian, a key o…

(Quantum) complexity of testing signed graph clusterability

Kuo-Chin Chen, Simon Apers, Min-Hsiu Hsieh

This study examines clusterability testing for a signed graph in the bounded-degree model. Our contributions are two-fold. First, we provide a quantum algorithm with query complexi…
