Ising machine by dimensional collapse of nonlinear polarization oscillators

Salvatore Chiavazzo, Marcello Calvanese Strinati, Claudio Conti +1

Ising machines show promise as ultrafast hardware for optimizations encoded in Ising Hamiltonians but fall short in terms of success rate and performance scaling. Here, we propose…

Emergent Equilibrium in All-Optical Single Quantum-Trajectory Ising Machines

Jacopo Tosca, Marcello Calvanese Strinati, Claudio Conti +1

We investigate the dynamics of multi-mode optical systems driven by two-photon processes and subject to non-local losses, incorporating quantum noise at the Gaussian level. Our fin…
