Quantum versus classical annealing: insights from scaling theory and results for spin glasses on 3-regular graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We discuss an Ising spin glass where each $S=1/2$ spin is coupled antiferromagnetically to three other spins (3-regular graphs). Inducing quantum fluctuations by a time-dependent transverse field, we use out-of-equilibrium quantum Monte Carlo simulations

On Logarithmic Simulated Annealing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We perform a convergence analysis of simulated annealing for the special case of logarithmic cooling schedules. For this class of simulated annealing algorithms, B. HAJEK proved that the convergence to optimum solutions requires the lower bound Γ/ln (k + 2) on the cooling schedule, where k is the number of transitions and Γ denotes the maximum value of

Solving ill-conditioned linear equations using simulated annealing method [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hyperstructures, 2018
The purpose of this paper is to using the Simulated Annealing method to solving a linear equations system which have an ill-conditioned coefficients matrix. A linear equation system is called ill-conditioned if its condition number be large.

Seeking Quantum Speedup Through Spin Glasses: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
There has been considerable progress in the design and construction of quantum annealing devices. However, a conclusive detection of quantum speedup over traditional silicon-based machines remains elusive, despite multiple careful studies.

Demonstration of a scaling advantage for a quantum annealer over simulated annealing

open access: yes, 2018
The observation of an unequivocal quantum speedup remains an elusive objective for quantum computing. The D-Wave quantum annealing processors have been at the forefront of experimental attempts to address this goal, given their relatively large numbers ...

A Simulated Annealing Algorithm for D-Optimal Design for 2-Way and 3-Way Polynomial Regression with Correlated Observations

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2014
Much of the previous work in D-optimal design for regression models with correlated errors focused on polynomial models with a single predictor variable, in large part because of the intractability of an analytic solution.
