Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) is a general-purpose modeling framework for combinatorial optimization problems and is a requirement for quantum annealers. This paper utilizes the eigenvalue decomposition of the underlying Q matrix to alter and improve the search process by extracting the information from dominant eigenvalues and eigenvectors to implicitly guide the search towards promising areas of the solution landscape. Computational results on benchmark datasets illustrate the efficacy of our routine demonstrating significant performance improvements on problems with dominant eigenvalues.

Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) is recognized as a unifying framework for modeling a wide range of problems. Problems can be solved with commercial solvers customized for solving QUBO and since QUBO have degree two, it is useful to have a method for transforming higher degree pseudo-Boolean problems to QUBO format. The standard transformation approach requires additional auxiliary variables supported by penalty terms for each higher degree term. This paper improves on the existing cubic-to-quadratic transformation approach by minimizing the number of additional variables as well as penalty coefficient. Extensive experimental testing on Max 3-SAT modeled as QUBO shows a near 100% reduction in the subproblem size used for minimization of the number of auxiliary variables.
Hypergraphs have gained increasing attention in the machine learning community lately due to their superiority over graphs in capturing super-dyadic interactions among entities. In this work, we propose a novel approach for the partitioning of k-uniform hypergraphs. Most of the existing methods work by reducing the hypergraph to a graph followed by applying standard graph partitioning algorithms. The reduction step restricts the algorithms to capturing only some weighted pairwise interactions and hence loses essential information about the original hypergraph. We overcome this issue by utilizing the tensor-based representation of hypergraphs, which enables us to capture actual super-dyadic interactions. We prove that the hypergraph to graph reduction is a special case of tensor contraction. We extend the notion of minimum ratio-cut and normalized-cut from graphs to hypergraphs and show the relaxed optimization problem is equivalent to tensor eigenvalue decomposition. This novel formulation also enables us to capture different ways of cutting a hyperedge, unlike the existing reduction approaches. We propose a hypergraph partitioning algorithm inspired from spectral graph theory that can accommodate this notion of hyperedge cuts. We also derive a tighter upper bound on the minimum positive eigenvalue of even-order hypergraph Laplacian tensor in terms of its conductance, which is utilized in the partitioning algorithm to approximate the normalized cut. The efficacy of the proposed method is demonstrated numerically on simple hypergraphs. We also show improvement for the min-cut solution on 2-uniform hypergraphs (graphs) over the standard spectral partitioning algorithm.
Link prediction in graphs is studied by modeling the dyadic interactions among two nodes. The relationships can be more complex than simple dyadic interactions and could require the user to model super-dyadic associations among nodes. Such interactions can be modeled using a hypergraph, which is a generalization of a graph where a hyperedge can connect more than two nodes. In this work, we consider the problem of hyperedge prediction in a $k-$uniform hypergraph. We utilize the tensor-based representation of hypergraphs and propose a novel interpretation of the tensor eigenvectors. This is further used to propose a hyperedge prediction algorithm. The proposed algorithm utilizes the textit{Fiedler} eigenvector computed using tensor eigenvalue decomposition of hypergraph Laplacian. The textit{Fiedler} eigenvector is used to evaluate the construction cost of new hyperedges, which is further utilized to determine the most probable hyperedges to be constructed. The functioning and efficacy of the proposed method are illustrated using some example hypergraphs and a few real datasets. The code for the proposed method is available on https://github.com/d-maurya/hypred_ tensorEVD
This paper proposes a new two-stage network mediation method based on the use of a latent network approach -- model-based eigenvalue decomposition -- for analyzing social network data with nodal covariates. In the decomposition stage of the observed network, no assumption on the metric of the latent space structure is required. In the mediation stage, the most important eigenvectors of a network are used as mediators. This method further offers an innovative way for controlling for the conditional covariates and it only considers the information left in the network. We demonstrate this approach in a detailed tutorial R code provided for four separate cases -- unconditional and conditional model-based eigenvalue decompositions for either a continuous outcome or a binary outcome -- to show its applicability to empirical network data.
This paper addresses quantum circuit mapping for Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) computers. Since NISQ computers constraint two-qubit operations on limited couplings, an input circuit must be transformed into an equivalent output circuit obeying the constraints. The transformation often requires additional gates that can affect the accuracy of running the circuit. Based upon a previous work of quantum circuit mapping that leverages gate commutation rules, this paper shows algorithms that utilize both transformation and commutation rules. Experiments on a standard benchmark dataset confirm the algorithms with more rules can find even better circuit mappings compared with the previously-known best algorithms.
