Optimizing fermionic Hamiltonians with classical interactions
Maarten Stroeks, Barbara M. Terhal, Yaroslav Herasymenko
We consider the optimization problem (ground energy search) for fermionic Hamiltonians with classical interactions. This QMA-hard problem is motivated by the Coulomb electron-elect…

Complexity of Fermionic 2-SAT
Maarten Stroeks, Barbara M. Terhal
We introduce the fermionic satisfiability problem, Fermionic -SAT: this is the problem of deciding whether there is a fermionic state in the null-space of a collection of fermio…

Solving Free Fermion Problems on a Quantum Computer
Maarten Stroeks, Daan Lenterman, Barbara Terhal +1
Simulating noninteracting fermion systems is a common task in computational many-body physics. In absence of translational symmetries, modeling free fermions on modes usually r…
