An introduction to quantum annealing

Diego de Falco, Dario Tamascelli (2011)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

Quantum annealing, or quantum stochastic optimization, is a classical randomized algorithm which provides good heuristics for the solution of hard optimization problems. The algorithm, suggested by the behaviour of quantum systems, is an example of proficuous cross contamination between classical and quantum computer science. In this survey paper we illustrate how hard combinatorial problems are tackled by quantum computation and present some examples of the heuristics provided by quantum...

When is a quantum space not a group?

Piotr Mikołaj Sołtan (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We give a survey of techniques from quantum group theory which can be used to show that some quantum spaces (objects of the category dual to the category of C*-algebras) do not admit any quantum group structure. We also provide a number of examples which include some very well known quantum spaces. Our tools include several purely quantum group theoretical results as well as study of existence of characters and traces on C*-algebras describing the considered quantum spaces as well as...
