Classical symmetries and the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm
Ruslan Shaydulin, Stuart Hadfield, Tad Hogg +1
We study the relationship between the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) and the underlying symmetries of the objective function to be optimized. Our approach formal…

Characterizing local noise in QAOA circuits
Jeffrey Marshall, Filip Wudarski, Stuart Hadfield +1
Recently Xue et al. [arXiv:1909.02196] demonstrated numerically that QAOA performance varies as a power law in the amount of noise under certain physical noise models. In this shor…
