We argue that a complete description of quantum annealing (QA) implemented with continuous variables must take into account the non-adiabatic Aharonov-Anandan geometric phase that arises when the system Hamiltonian changes during the anneal. We show that this geometric effect leads to the appearance of non-stoquastic terms in the effective quantum Ising Hamiltonians that are typically used to describe QA with flux-qubits. We explicitly demonstrate the effect of these geometric interactions when QA is performed with a system of one and two coupled flux-qubits. The realization of non-stoquastic Hamiltonians has important implications from a computational complexity perspective, since it is believed that in many cases QA with stoquastic Hamiltonians can be efficiently simulated via classical algorithms such as Quantum Monte Carlo. It is well-known that the direct implementation of non-stoquastic interactions with flux-qubits is particularly challenging. Our results suggest an alternative path for the implementation of non-stoquastic interactions via geometric phases that can be exploited for computational purposes.
We present a method for calculating the Aharonov-Anandan phase for time-independent Hamiltonians that avoids the calculation of evolution operators. We compare the generic method used to calculate the Aharonov-Anandan phase with the method proposed h
The role of non-stoquasticity in the field of quantum annealing and adiabatic quantum computing is an actively debated topic. We study a strongly-frustrated quasi-one-dimensional quantum Ising model on a two-leg ladder to elucidate how a first-order
The quantum states which satisfy the equality in the generalised uncertainty relation are called intelligent states. We prove the existence of intelligent states for the Anandan-Aharonov uncertainty relation based on the geometry of the quantum state
We present a theoretical study of spin-3/2 hole transport through mesoscopic rings, based on the spherical Luttinger model. The quasi-one-dimensional ring is created in a symmetric two-dimensional quantum well by a singular-oscillator potential for t
For the nonlocal $T$-periodic Gross-Pitaevsky operator, formal solutions of the Floquet problem asymptotic in small parameter $hbar$, $hbarto0$, up to $O(hbar^{3/2})$ have been constructed. The quasi-energy spectral series found correspond to the clo
