An Optimal Product-State Approximation for 2-Local Quantum Hamiltonians with Positive Terms
Ojas Parekh, Kevin Thompson
We resolve the approximability of the maximum energy of the Quantum Max Cut (QMC) problem using product states. A classical 0.498-approximation, using a basic semidefinite programm…

Maximizing free energy gain
Artemy Kolchinsky, Iman Marvian, Can Gokler +6
Maximizing the amount of work harvested from an environment is important for a wide variety of biological and technological processes, from energy-harvesting processes such as phot…
