We illustrate the adiabatic quantum computing solution of the knapsack problem with both integer profits and weights. For problems with $n$ objects (or items) and integer capacity $c$, we give specific examples using both an Ising class problem Hamiltonian requiring $n+c$ qubits and a much more efficient one using $n+[log_2 c]+1$ qubits. The discussion includes a brief mention of classical algorithms for knapsack, applications of this commonly occurring problem, and the relevance of further studies both theoretically and numerically of the behavior of the energy gap. Included too is a demonstration and commentary on a version of quantum search using a certain Ising model. Furthermore, an Appendix presents analytic results concerning the boundary for the easy-versus-hard problem-instance phase transition for the special case subset sum problem.

The graph-theoretic Ramsey numbers are notoriously difficult to calculate. In fact, for the two-color Ramsey numbers $R(m,n)$ with $m,ngeq 3$, only nine are currently known. We present a quantum algorithm for the computation of the Ramsey numbers $R(
m,n)$. We show how the computation of $R(m,n)$ can be mapped to a combinatorial optimization problem whose solution can be found using adiabatic quantum evolution. We numerically simulate this adiabatic quantum algorithm and show that it correctly determines the Ramsey numbers R(3,3) and R(2,s) for $5leq sleq 7$. We then discuss the algorithms experimental implementation, and close by showing that Ramsey number computation belongs to the quantum complexity class QMA.
In the Graph Isomorphism problem two N-vertex graphs G and G are given and the task is to determine whether there exists a permutation of the vertices of G that preserves adjacency and transforms G into G. If yes, then G and G are said to be isomorph
ic; otherwise they are non-isomorphic. The GI problem is an important problem in computer science and is thought to be of comparable difficulty to integer factorization. In this paper we present a quantum algorithm that solves arbitrary instances of GI and can also determine all automorphisms of a given graph. We show how the GI problem can be converted to a combinatorial optimization problem that can be solved using adiabatic quantum evolution. We numerically simulate the algorithms quantum dynamics and show that it correctly: (i) distinguishes non-isomorphic graphs; (ii) recognizes isomorphic graphs; and (iii) finds all automorphisms of a given graph G. We then discuss the GI quantum algorithms experimental implementation, and close by showing how it can be leveraged to give a quantum algorithm that solves arbitrary instances of the NP-Complete Sub-Graph Isomorphism problem.
The variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) is a hybrid quantum-classical algorithm for finding the minimum eigenvalue of a Hamiltonian that involves the optimization of a parameterized quantum circuit. Since the resulting optimization problem is in ge
neral nonconvex, the method can converge to suboptimal parameter values which do not yield the minimum eigenvalue. In this work, we address this shortcoming by adopting the concept of variational adiabatic quantum computing (VAQC) as a procedure to improve VQE. In VAQC, the ground state of a continuously parameterized Hamiltonian is approximated via a parameterized quantum circuit. We discuss some basic theory of VAQC to motivate the development of a hybrid quantum-classical homotopy continuation method. The proposed method has parallels with a predictor-corrector method for numerical integration of differential equations. While there are theoretical limitations to the procedure, we see in practice that VAQC can successfully find good initial circuit parameters to initialize VQE. We demonstrate this with two examples from quantum chemistry. Through these examples, we provide empirical evidence that VAQC, combined with other techniques (an adaptive termination criteria for the classical optimizer and a variance-based resampling method for the expectation evaluation), can provide more accurate solutions than plain VQE, for the same amount of effort.
We show a superpolynomial oracle separation between the power of adiabatic quantum computation with no sign problem and the power of classical computation.
Using Schwinger Variational Principle we solve the problem of quantum harmonic oscillator with time dependent frequency. Here, we do not take the usual approach which implicitly assumes an adiabatic behavior for the frequency. Instead, we propose a n
ew solution where the frequency only needs continuity in its first derivative or to have a finite set of removable discontinuities.
