Challenges and Opportunities in Quantum Optimization
Amira Abbas, Andris Ambainis, Brandon Augustino +43
Recent advances in quantum computers are demonstrating the ability to solve problems at a scale beyond brute force classical simulation. As such, a widespread interest in quantum a…
Quantum computing for chemistry and physics applications from a Monte Carlo perspective
Guglielmo Mazzola
This Perspective focuses on the several overlaps between quantum algorithms and Monte Carlo methods in the domains of physics and chemistry. We will analyze the challenges and poss…
Challenges of variational quantum optimization with measurement shot noise
Giuseppe Scriva, Nikita Astrakhantsev, Sebastiano Pilati +1
Quantum enhanced optimization of classical cost functions is a central theme of quantum computing due to its high potential value in science and technology. The variational quantum…
A Jastrow wave function for the spin-1 Heisenberg chain: the string order revealed by the mapping to the classical Coulomb gas
Davide Piccioni, Christian Apostoli, Federico Becca +4
We show that a two-body Jastrow wave function is able to capture the ground-state properties of the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain with the single-ion anisotropy term, in…
Variational Benchmarks for Quantum Many-Body Problems
Dian Wu, Riccardo Rossi, Filippo Vicentini +30
The continued development of computational approaches to many-body ground-state problems in physics and chemistry calls for a consistent way to assess its overall progress. In this…
