Recent developments in quantum annealing
We review and comment on some of the recent developments in quantum annealing. In particular, we will comment on recent findings that quantum annealers may be best suited for finding a class of approximate solutions and on Google’s announcement of quantum annealers outperforming classical annealers by significant margins. This is not meant to be a comprehensive review and we apologize in advanc...
متن کاملExperimental signature of programmable quantum annealing.
Quantum annealing is a general strategy for solving difficult optimization problems with the aid of quantum adiabatic evolution. Both analytical and numerical evidence suggests that under idealized, closed system conditions, quantum annealing can outperform classical thermalization-based algorithms such as simulated annealing. Current engineered quantum annealing devices have a decoherence time...
متن کاملClassical signature of quantum annealing
*Correspondence: John A. Smolin, IBM Research, 1101 Kitchawan Road, Yorktown, NY 10598, USA e-mail: [email protected] A pair of recent articles [1, 2] concluded that the D-Wave One machine actually operates in the quantum regime, rather than performing some classical evolution. Here we give a classical model that leads to the same behaviors used in those works to infer quantum effects. Thus, ...
متن کاملTheory of quantum annealing of an Ising spin glass.
Probing the lowest energy configuration of a complex system by quantum annealing was recently found to be more effective than its classical, thermal counterpart. By comparing classical and quantum Monte Carlo annealing protocols on the two-dimensional random Ising model (a prototype spin glass), we confirm the superiority of quantum annealing relative to classical annealing. We also propose a t...
متن کاملQuantum Annealing with Markov Chain Monte Carlo Simulations and D-Wave Quantum Computers
Quantum computation performs calculations by using quantum devices instead of electronic devices following classical physics and used by classical computers. Although general purpose quantum computers of practical scale may be many years away, special purpose quantum computers are being built with capabilities exceeding classical computers. One prominent case is the so-called D-Wave quantum com...
