Targeting Clause Type Distributions: a Picklock for Random Satisfiability Problems
J. Schwardt, J. C. Budich
Optimization problems such as the NP-complete 3-SAT provide an important benchmark for the difficult task of finding ground-states in strongly correlated many-body systems with rug…

Entanglement Barriers from Computational Complexity: Matrix-Product-State Approach to Satisfiability
Tim Pokart, Frank Pollmann, Jan Carl Budich
We approach the 3-SAT satisfiability problem with the quantum-inspired method of imaginary time propagation (ITP) applied to matrix product states (MPS) on a classical computer. Th…

Diffusion in quantum state preparation: From passive cooling to system-bath engineering
Tim Pokart, Lukas König, Sebastian Diehl +1
We investigate and compare two particle number-conserving protocols for the preparation of a topologically nontrivial state. The first is derived from thermally coupling the system…
