QAOA-in-QAOA: Solving Large-Scale MaxCut Problems on Small Quantum Machines
The design of fast algorithms for combinatorial optimization greatly contributes to a plethora of domains such as logistics, finance, and chemistry. Quantum approximate optimization algorithms (QAOAs), which utilize the power of quantum machines and inherit the spirit of adiabatic evolution, are novel approaches to tackle combinatorial problems with ...

QAOA on Hamiltonian Cycle problem
I use QAOA to solve the Hamiltonian Circle problem. First, inspired by Lucas, I define the QUBO form of Hamiltonian Cycle and transform it to a quantum circuit by embedding the problem of $n$ vertices to an encoding of $(n-1)^2$ qubits. Then, I calcluate the spectrum of the cost hamiltonian for both triangle case and square case and justify my ...

Alignment between initial state and mixer improves QAOA performance for constrained optimization
Quantum alternating operator ansatz (QAOA) has a strong connection to the adiabatic algorithm, which it can approximate with sufficient depth. However, it is unclear to what extent the lessons from the adiabatic regime apply to QAOA as executed in ...

Pitfalls of the Sublinear QAOA-Based Factorization Algorithm
Quantum computing devices are believed to be powerful in solving the prime factorization problem, which is at the heart of widely deployed public-key cryptographic tools. However, the implementation of Shor's quantum factorization algorithm requires significant resources scaling linearly with the number size; taking into account an overhead that is ...
