Exponentially-Biased Ground-State Sampling of Quantum Annealing Machines with Transverse-Field Driving Hamiltonians
Salvatore Mandrà, Zheng Zhu, Helmut G. Katzgraber
We study the performance of the D-Wave 2X quantum annealing machine on systems with well-controlled ground-state degeneracy. While obtaining the ground state of a spin-glass benchm…

Strengths and weaknesses of weak-strong cluster problems: A detailed overview of state-of-the-art classical heuristics vs quantum approaches
Salvatore Mandrà, Zheng Zhu, Wenlong Wang +2
To date, a conclusive detection of quantum speedup remains elusive. Recently, a team by Google Inc.~[V.~S.~Denchev {\em et al}., Phys.~Rev.~X {\bf 6}, 031015 (2016)] proposed a wea…
