Aram Harrow - Quantum Monte Carlo vs Tunneling in Adiabatic Optimization
In this talk I'll present a quantum algorithm for solving semidefinite programs (SDPs). It has worst case running time O((nm)^1/2 r), with n and r the dimension and sparsity of the input matrices, respectively, and m the number of constraints. In contrast any classical method requires at least Omega(nm) time to solve the problem. I'll discuss how for some instances the algorithm might offer eve...
متن کاملUnderstanding Quantum Tunneling through Quantum Monte Carlo Simulations.
The tunneling between the two ground states of an Ising ferromagnet is a typical example of many-body tunneling processes between two local minima, as they occur during quantum annealing. Performing quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations we find that the QMC tunneling rate displays the same scaling with system size, as the rate of incoherent tunneling. The scaling in both cases is O(Δ^{2}), wher...
متن کاملQuantum Monte Carlo Simulations of Exciton Condensates
We have studied scattering states and thermodynamic properties of electron-hole systems. Starting from the constituent electrons and holes and Coulomb interactions, we have used quantum Monte Carlo simulation techniques to sample properties of wavefunctions and thermal density matrices. We have studied three types of systems: (1) the scattering of two excitons, with full-quantum treatment of th...
متن کاملQuantum Monte Carlo simulations of solids
This article describes the variational and fixed-node diffusion quantum Monte Carlo methods and how they may be used to calculate the properties of many-electron systems. These stochastic wave-function-based approaches provide a very direct treatment of quantum many-body effects and serve as benchmarks against which other techniques may be compared. They complement the less demanding density-fu...
متن کاملQuantum Monte Carlo Simulations of Solid
Recent experimental investigations [20] of solid He have been interpreted as showing possible superfluidity in the solid at low temperatures, below 0.2 K. A solid behaving this way, exhibiting both long range translational order and superfluidity, has been called a supersolid phase. The existence of a supersolid phase was proposed many years ago [1], and has been discussed theoretically. In thi...
